“On October 4, on Rustaveli Avenue, as soon as the Georgian people send off the treacherous Georgian Dream’s junta, I will return to the art I have missed so dearly,” Paata Burchuladze, leader of the Rustaveli Avenue movement, shared this message on social media.

As Burchuladze emphasised, he does not intend to pursue a career in politics.

“Many people ask me about my acquaintanceship with Tariel Oniani and Bacho Akhalaia, and I want to clarify that I have maintained very friendly relations with them for many years. Regarding their involvement in politics, I must say that for Tariel, such participation is absolutely unacceptable, and Bacho Akhalaia categorically denies any political engagement. So, I will remain friends with them without any political ties, although I must also admit that I do not plan to become a politician myself.

On October 4, on Rustaveli Avenue, as the Georgian people bid farewell to the treacherous Georgian Dream’s junta, I will return to the art I have long missed,” Paata Burchuladze wrote.
