Speaker of the Georgian Parliament, Shalva Papuashvili, says public backing for the ruling Georgian Dream party has seen a significant boost following what he describes as a “historic” outcome in the parliamentary elections.

In a social media post referencing a recent survey by GORBI, Papuashvili highlighted that 63% of voters trust the electoral process, while 56.2% express support for Georgian Dream.

“This is the Georgian people’s answer to those who trade service to their country for foreign submission, national interests for waving someone else’s flag, and love for hatred and violence,” Papuashvili wrote.

According to him, Georgians are choosing peace over war, development over destruction, unity over division, and acting in line with national interests rather than “becoming puppets in a hysterical world that has lost its way.”
