Salome Zourabichvili, the fifth President of Georgia declares that Georgia is increasingly isolated, and the country is closed off, which is affecting the economy. As of her, Georgian economy is also largely stagnant today.
According to Zourabichvili, the only way out is through elections.
"Due to all of this, we see that Georgia is moving further into isolation. The country is closed off, which directly impacts our economy, which is also largely stagnant today. While some revenue still exists, much of it comes from circumventing sanctions, which have recently intensified. One source of financial income today is the very expensive vehicles leaving Georgia, ostensibly headed for Central Asia but actually going to Russia. Each vehicle has a significant value, and it is unclear what else might be transported alongside them. This is a very serious issue and likely one of the ways the ruling party still maintains some income. This is our unfortunate and very deep crisis, and the only way out is through elections," Zurabishvili said.
