The President of Georgia accused the government and the ruling party of sympathizing with the occupying country

Speaking in parliament as part of the discussion of her impeachment, Georgian President Salome Zurabishvili criticized its initiators - the ruling Georgian Dream party and the country’s government formed by it.

“It’s amazing that in our time you treat the occupying country and its leaders with great trepidation. Moreover, you openly deserve praise from the occupiers and are not even embarrassed. How do you explain to people that you voted for the impeachment of a pro-European president and at the same time did not support the resolution of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe, which recognized the Russian occupation regime as dictatorial? Your hand shook when you had to condemn Russia’s plan to open a new naval base on our territory,” Zurabishvili said. The President of Georgia also stated that the Constitutional Court made an unlawful decision and could not resist the political will of her opponents.

Earlier, the Constitutional Court of Georgia satisfied the submission of the Georgian Dream and confirmed Salome Zurabishvili's violation of the law due to her foreign visits without government permission. Parliament must put the issue of impeachment to a vote. The president, in turn, said that she does not intend to resign.
