Citizens party not to join UNM rally

16:36, 08.10.2021

Parliamentary opposition Citizens party would not join any rally organized by the United National Movement (UNM), said party member Levan Ioseliani.

Levan Ioseliani does not consider ex-president Mikheil Saakashvili as a political prisoner. In his remarks, Ioseliani recalled the charges against the ex-president and stressed that Mikheil Saakashvili intentionally crossed the state border illegally.

“Presidential pardon is the only judicial mechanism to release Mikheil Saakashvili. However, as far as I know, President Zourabichvili rejected to pardon him,” Ioseliani claimed.

The opposition United National Movement (UNM) will organize a large-scale protest rally in Tbilisi in support and solidarity with imprisoned ex-president Mikheil Saakashvili. The UNM is consulting over the date and exact time of the rally.
