Georgian impeachment push unlikely amid lack of votes, says opposition figure

Georgian opposition figure Khatia Dekanoidze argues that authorities in Georgia are unlikely to push through the impeachment of President Salome Zurabishvili, according to a report from Channel One. Dekanoidze suggested that the ruling party does not presently hold enough votes in parliament to complete such a process. He pointed out that the development appears aimed at creating information chaos and stirring political controversy. Dekanoidze warned of a potential cycle of radicalization and polarization, noting that the impeachment attempt will likely not advance to the final stage because the ruling coalition understands it does not currently possess the required 100 votes. In his view, pursuing the impeachment would be a political gamble with uncertain, high risks for those backing it.
