“Violence is unacceptable no matter which side it comes from. We condemn all attempts by the organizers of today’s process to discredit the public’s peaceful protest,” wrote Mamuka Khazaradze, leader of the Lelo – Strong Georgia party, on Facebook.

According to Khazaradze, Bidzina Ivanishvili’s regime is fully responsible for the escalation of the processes.

“The government has to change only through elections, through a constitutional process. We have chosen this path and we firmly believe in it! Violence is unacceptable no matter which side it comes from. Bidzina Ivanishvili’s regime is fully responsible for the escalation of the processes.

Hereby, we condemn all attempts by the organizers of today’s process to discredit the public’s peaceful protest. The country is in a deep political crisis, and society is divided. The only solution is to immediately call new parliamentary elections,” he wrote.
