MMA fighter Giorgi Kartvelishvili announced the establishment of a new people's movement with his associates.
As Kartvelishvili noted at a briefing held at the office of the Georgian Federation of Journalists, the goal of the movement will be to protect Georgian values, traditions and national identity.
According to him, recent events have shown that Georgian identity, traditions, religion and cultural heritage are the target of coordinated attacks. According to him, groups carrying pseudo-liberal ideology, funded from abroad, politicians, activists, media representatives and individuals affiliated with them are behind such campaigns.
According to Kartvelishvili, the aforementioned processes aim to devalue national values and present their insults to society as the norm.
According to him, the initiative group is establishing a people's movement from today, which, according to him, will begin its activities "against people with perverted ideology and groups formed by them, who are financed from abroad, are in slavish obedience to external interests." As he noted, the movement promises the society active and constructive activities and states that, if necessary, it will be ready to take responsibility and receive appropriate legal consequences for the protection of national identity and culture. "We want to tell the society that our movement will be very active, solid, and at the same time as constructive as possible. But if it is necessary for us to protect culture and national identity, we will not shy away from any danger. We are ready to answer for each of our actions, even go to prison if necessary," said Giorgi Kartvelishvili.
