Former Georgian Prime Minister Giorgi Kvirikashvili writes on his Facebook page that the ‘political greed of the ruling party may cost the government and the country dearly.’
Kvirikashvili accented the importance of national consolidation in the time of economic crisis caused by the coronavirus pandemic and tense geopolitical situation in the region.
When you have a terrible economic crisis caused by the pandemic and, consequently, difficult social conditions inside the country, hot conflict and geopolitical risks beyond the dangerous mark in the South Caucasus … and you do not take even half step towards the national consolidation, towards sharing responsibilities and reducing polarisation, this first of all frustrates people", wrote Kvirikashvili.
Kvirikashvili was the prime minister of Georgia from 2015 to 2018.
In 2018 he announced his resignation due to controversies on economic and other fundamental issues with the Georgian Dream ruling party and the party head Bidzina Ivanishvili.
