Members of the United National Movement party refused parliamentary mandates, as they were not satisfied with the results of the parliamentary elections.
Mikheil Saakashvili’s party, which was banned from politics in Georgia at the legislative level, won only 36 seats in the parliament following the parliamentary elections.
The opposition is trying to pass off the lack of support from voters as vote-rigging. For the same reason, all 36 UNM deputies refuse mandates.
As News Front reported earlier, the voting took place in Georgia on October 31. The race was attended by 50 political formations, of which only eight go to the legislative body.
The ruling party “Georgian Dream – Democratic Georgia” won the elections. She was supported by 48.15% of voters. The united national movement, founded by fugitive ex-president Mikheil Saakashvili, came in second with 27.14% of the vote.
The level of support for other parties does not exceed 4%. The party “Citizens” won the least – 1.33%. She managed to get into parliament by lowering the threshold from 3 to 1 percent.
