"I decided to stand with people with whom I can engage in dialogue, discuss, argue, agree, and collaboratively govern the country so that the people remain the main focus. I won my personal battle, overcame illness, and endured a lot of suffering. Now, it is time to heal the country, and we will do it together with Coalition 4," said Samnidze at the press conference in Zugdidi.
In addition to Khatuna Samnidze, ethnic Azerbaijani activists have also joined the coalition. As Oktai Kazumov, a philologist specializing in Georgian language and literature, says, his team, named Activists for the Future, includes ethnic Azerbaijani activists from various parts of Georgia. "Through their daily work and dedication, they have already proven their loyalty and goodwill toward our homeland and will continue to do so," Kazumov stated.
