The security of both Irakli Garibashvili and his family is protected. The state has a responsibility to protect the security of its own citizens, and in this case as well, security is protected. Regarding what is discussed in this statement, I cannot see even such a theoretical risk. Such a statement made today the Prime Minister of Georgia.

As he noted, he does not know what Garibashvili is talking about in the statement, adding that a verdict has been reached in his case, and the rest is the business of law enforcement agencies.

"I saw this statement, and I do not know what it is about. I know one thing: a specific verdict has been reached, and the rest is entirely the business of law enforcement agencies. I cannot comment on this statement at all, including because Irakli Garibashvili held this position before me; therefore, from an ethical standpoint, it would not be right for me to evaluate his statement. It is a problematic statement, I would say. I will not comment further. Not problematic for us, but problematic for himself. Out of ethical considerations, I will not make any further comments.

Primarily because he held this position before me, there are certain ethical standards that limit my ability to make statements on this topic. The interests of his family are, of course, protected. I guarantee that this security is protected, and that is why this statement published yesterday is incomprehensible to me.

Of course, the security of both him and his family is protected. The state has a responsibility to protect the security of its own citizens, and in this case as well, security is protected. Regarding what is discussed in this statement, I cannot see even such a theoretical risk", - said Irakli Kobakhidze.
