UNM’s Parulava: Banking mafia derailed opposition unity around single list

Mikheil Saakashvili is not confronting anyone and is only speaking about facts, Lasha Pharulava, a member of the United National Movement, said.

According to Parulava, Saakashvili had a specific initiative ahead of the 2024 parliamentary elections, which involved uniting the opposition around a single electoral list.

“Precisely this initiative was derailed by the banking mafia, the banking oligarchy, through a specific financial contribution it made to the Akhali coalition. This effectively turned out to be Ivanishvili’s Trojan horse, which damaged the common struggle and the national interest.

In order for this not to happen again, it is necessary to remind everyone of this, since we are fighting Ivanishvili’s corrupt and criminal regime. The most important thing here is dedication, not financial interests,” Parulava said.
