• On August 3, an effort to hinder the “Gakharia for Georgia” party's election campaign was documented [1] in Batumi. According [2] to the party's deputy chairperson, Natia Mezvrishvili, it was people employed in budgetary organizations, who at the same time are “Georgian Dream” activists, who attempted to disrupt the meeting.

For a healthy pre-election environment, all parties must be able to freely conduct election campaigns. The Ministry of Internal Affairs should provide a safe environment and prevent attempts to disrupt election events.
