The Prime Minister of Georgia threatens the President with imprisonment and rejects the possibility of new elections

The Prime Minister of Georgia, Irakli Kobakhidze, threatened the President of the country, Salome Zourabichvili, with criminal liability if she does not leave the presidential residence by December 29. This is reported by UNN with reference to News - Georgia.

No one wants to put a 72-year-old woman in prison, but her actions can lead to a violation of the Criminal Code. This will implicate not only her, but also those who will remain with her in the residence. I am confident that she has enough common sense to avoid this

Protests have lost support?

Kobakhidze claims that the protests in Georgia are losing scale. According to him, the Saturday demonstration on Rustaveli Avenue gathered only about 3,000 people. The Prime Minister called the video footage showing a large crowd of protesters as old, although this year's New Year's symbols are clearly visible on them.

"People are no longer participating in the actions. The radical opposition is in a state of emotional breakdown, they failed to provoke the police or create a tense situation," Kobakhidze said.

There will be no new elections

The Prime Minister also ruled out the possibility of new elections, calling such demands "comical". According to him, the Central Election Commission, the Constitutional Court and the Parliament have confirmed the legitimacy of the last elections, and the government continues to fulfill its duties.

He summed up that there are no grounds for new elections. These demands are just an attempt to destabilize.
