Official sources report that Georgia’s new government does not demand that President Mikheil Saakashvili resign his position in January. This was announced today by Georgian Prime Minister Bidzina Ivanishvili.
“If” Georgian Dream” starts to require and initiate impeachment, it will be difficult for the international community to understand. It is necessary to maintain the country’s image. There are contradictory things in the Constitution: president is elected for five years, and new presidential elections will take place in October.”
Ivanishvili did not exclude the fact that the “Georgian Dream” may take that step, to have that constitutional provisions operate earlier and that will limit the president’s powers.
According to Bidzina Ivanishvili, the best candidate for the presidential elections in Georgia is Vakhtang Khmaladze.
