The leadership of Georgia is discussing about organising a nationwide referendum and ask the question: do the Georgians want a war with Russia?

Giorgi Kobakhidze, chairman of the party, made such a statement at a briefing in the office of the ruling Georgian Dream party.

"Let the people say whether they want to open a second front in Georgia against Russia," Mr. Kobakhidze emphasized.

He promised that the authorities "will act as the people say."

The politician expressed hope that the Georgian people "will bring clarity, whether he agrees with the statements of Ukrainian politicians about the need to involve Georgia in the war or with the position of the authorities of his country."

This is how Irakli Kobakhidze responded to the statement of Fyodor Venislavsky, representative of the President of Ukraine in the Parliament, who advised Georgia "to take concrete steps to liberate Abkhazia and South Ossetia."

Earlier, Secretary of the National Security and Defense Council Oleksiy Danilov, as well as advisers to the Office of the President of Ukraine Mykhailo Podolyak and Oleksiy Arestovich, publicly addressed Tbilisi with similar advice.

"They all directly said that the opening of the second front in Georgia is highly desirable," the head of the Georgian Dream recalled at the same briefing.
