Georgia's Patriarchate releases statement regarding Patriarch's meeting with Grigol Vashadze

Georgia's Patriarchate has today released a statement regarding the meeting between Catholicos-Patriarch of All Geortgia and Grigol Vashadze, presidential candidate of the United Opposition "Power is in Unity".

"Earlier, and regrettably, today, we have to make explanation due to a wrong interpretation of the meeting held with the Catholicos-Patriarch. This time we mean the remarks of presidential candidate Mr. Grigol Vashadze, who said: "His Holiness was very interested what kind of plans do we have to destroy the ugly system in Georgia, giving rise to a one-party and private governance." This position is the expression of Grigol Vashadze's attitude and has nothing to do with the Patriarch's words; On the contrary, while speaking about the future plans, his holiness has been repeatedly requested the opposite parties to be corrected to each other, which is necessary for the proper development of the country, "the statement reads.
