I have been a member of the management team since its inception, having worked in public service for over 10 years in various leadership roles, which provided the best opportunity to make a difference for our city during these years.
Given the current political landscape, I will engage in party activities and continue my work in Tbilisi," Khakhaleishvili said.
As he said, "the country faces a very significant, historic choice," and he intends to contribute to the country in another capacity.
