Ruling Party MP Says Zurabishvili should not have been a GD-Endorsed candidate
Revaz Arveladze, a member of the parliamentary majority considers that Salome Zurabishvili, the presidential candidate, should not have been supported by the ruling party - Georgia Dream.
“I think Salome Zurabishvili should not have been a candidate supported by the Georgian Dream and the party should have presented its own candidate. When the above-mentioned issue was being discussed, I expressed my opinion, said that the party had decent people and it should support neither an independent candidate nor anyone presented by another party. Obviously, finally, I supported what the majority decided,” said Arveladze.
