The ruling Dream party has vowed to proceed with the session despite widespread boycotts by opposition groups and ongoing constitutional disputes.
The inaugural session of Georgia’s newly elected Parliament is scheduled for 25 November, but it is already surrounded by significant controversy. The ruling Dream party has vowed to proceed with the session despite widespread boycotts by opposition groups and ongoing constitutional disputes.
It has announced its intention to recognise the powers of all MPs, elect parliamentary leadership, and establish committees during the session. However, opposition parties, disputing the legitimacy of the election results, have renounced their parliamentary seats and are organising a major protest outside the session to block its proceedings.
In a notable departure from tradition, the diplomatic corps will not be present. The ruling party has framed the session as a strictly internal matter, while critics argue that this decision is an effort to evade international oversight.
With tensions escalating both in the streets and within the political arena, 25 November is poised to become a pivotal day in Georgia’s political landscape.
