Why does Davit Gamkrelidze exclude street rallies?
Sakartvelos Respublika writes that on October 19 Davit Gamkrelidze, leader of the New Rights party, during his meeting with journalists talked about the improvement of the elections environment and outlined what his party will do if the authorities do nothing to improve the situation.
“Everyone is talking about the improvement of the elections environment including international organizations, Diplomatic corps, and Georgian society. We do our job separately but for our country’s better future we will manage to cooperate with our colleagues in the opposition parties. We are ready to do more in this field, but first of all we need the authorities to agree to our demands. Now we are just waiting for an answer, our major goal is to create a free and fair elections environment,” Gamkrelidze said.
“These elections should do its best to change the leadership. Society does not believe this will happen but the possibility is real. We have frequent meetings with people and introduce our plan which will guarantee that the elections will pass without any violence in the future,” the New Rights leader said, adding that he “excludes street protest rallies at this stage.”
“One of the biggest problems remains the elections lists, where there are the names of dead people or those who have been living abroad for a long time. There are cases when the opposition supporters are not in the elections list and when they ask to put their names in the list in order to take part in the elections, for unknown reasons, they are being refused,” Gamkrelidze said.
