According to Levan Tsutskiridze, leader of the “Freedom Square” movement, the “10-point plan for a new stage of democratic resistance” reflects the party’s vision and aims to activate the opposition flank.
Speaking on the PalitraNews program “360 Degrees,” he noted that by publishing the plan, “Freedom Square” takes responsibility toward the public and the opposition spectrum.
“The ‘National Movement’ has chosen its own path. As for yesterday’s rally, it was organized by the political parties that remained in the ‘Septet’ after the ‘National Movement’ left the ‘Octet’ at the time. Those of us who stayed worked on some things together. I was very pleased that the ‘National Movement’ joined yesterday’s rally. The ‘National Movement’ is also free to publish its own plans and tell us what they intend to do. We, ‘Freedom Square,’ are not going to wait for everyone to agree on something acceptable to all.
I believe that the political process should not be structured by people locking themselves in a room and then imposing decisions on the public. We consider it our responsibility to publish our views. Everyone is asking, ‘What is the plan, tell us the plan.’ We published the plan, and now we await responses from the public and the parties,” Tsutskiridze stated.
According to him, “Freedom Square” is a rapidly growing political force that does not rule out cooperation but is prepared to act independently to achieve a common goal.
Tsutskiridze explained that a significant portion of their 10-point plan is aimed at creating conditions for holding free elections.
“‘Freedom Square’ is one of the fastest-growing political parties. We have never ruled out cooperation with others. The fact that we published our vision does not mean we won’t cooperate with others. Cooperation should be based on how we reach the point we want to get to. In my opinion, the 10-point plan serves a common goal.
Eighty percent of the 10-point plan is about what will bring us closer to the moment when we can hold free elections. We published this plan because we are taking responsibility to implement it,” Tsutskiridze stated.
