The
ruling party Georgian Dream has proven they were still popular (48%) among the nation
after the parliamentary elections on October 9. The opposition - the United National
Movement (UNM), took about 27%. Earlier the founder of UNM and the former
President of Georgia and, M. Saakashvili, stated that if he was in Georgia, the
party would win. He added, no mater what would be an outcome of the elections,
he would not leave his post in Ukraine. There is also a big possibility that the
populist pro-Russian party, Alliance of Patriots, will also enter the parliament. Preliminary report of the OSCE election observation mission to Georgia
evaluated election positively. Will the new parliament bring Georgia closer to
the EU and NATO?
