Girchi's Rakviashvili views precedent of banning political parties as bad

“The precedent that parties will be banned is bad,” said Aleksandre Rakviashvilli, one of the leaders of the Girchi party.

According to Rakviashvili, the Lelo party’s faith that the court will review or discuss anything is strange.

“In general, banning parties is incorrect since parties should be defeated by words rather than political force. In this case, the Georgian Dream’s move was prognosticated to a certain extent.

As for results, the United National Movement (UNM) and Ahali parties do not intend to participate in elections and do not function as parties. They merely represent the unity of people. Despite this, the precedent that parties will be banned is bad.

I find the sacred faith of the Lelo, thinking that the court would discuss or review anything, is strange, but taking into account the political system we live in and what kind of court system we have, I don’t think something good will work out from that,” he said.
