It is very sad for us and for me personally that he [Mamuka Mdinaradze] made this decision, but I fully respect his decision. Such a statement made today Speaker of the Georgian Parliament.

"He [Mamuka Mdinaradze] spoke about the reasons why he made the decision himself. He himself ruled out other insinuations that could have followed his decision. I think he had a very open and sincere briefing, where every journalist present had the opportunity to receive the explanation of his decision from him personally.

It is very sad for us and for me personally that he made this decision, but I fully respect his decision. People have the right to define their own political or other kinds of paths themselves. It would never be too early or too late. Decisions are made when they are made. There is no right time or weather for this. A person makes a decision when they feel that the decision has matured within them, and therefore no one from the outside can notice this", - said Shalva Papuashvili.
