Parliament to give confidence vote to new Cabinet

Georgian parliament will give a confidence vote to PM Giorgi Gakharia’s Cabinet and governmental program Building of a European State at the extraordinary session on Thursday.

There will be only one new minister in the Cabinet. Gocha Lortkipanidze will take over the Ministry of Justice; other candidates remain unchanged. At the same time, structural change is possible. The Ministry of Education, Science, Culture, and Sports of Georgia would likely split. The Ministry of Culture is likely to be detached in a separate body.

The main part of the governmental program Building of a European State refers to combating the pandemic.

The new government needs the support of 76 MPs for approval.
