🎧 Tbilisi night clubs have issued a statement according to which they will start their work, despite the government's ban.
After lengthy negotiations, the situation between business representatives and the labor inspectorate turned into mutual accusations. Representatives of electronic music and the club scene accuse the government of breaking agreements, and the labor inspectorate says that in the current epidemiological situation, clubs should be more humble.
❗️Bottom line: in the coming weekend, clubs, despite the ban, do not remove announcements of events and are ready to hold parties. The Labor Inspectorate promises to fine the guilty and seal the premises.

🇬🇪 News feeds today remembered someone who seemed to have been forgotten: former Georgian Prime Minister Giorgi Gakharia.
The representative of his party "For Georgia", became the head of the sakrebulo (City Council) in Chhorotsku with the support of the opposition parties "United National Movement" and "Lelo". Shota Tsurtsumiya won the majority of votes, and representatives of the ruling party, in protest, did not take part in the vote. After that, pro-government publications were full of headlines almost about the national betrayal of Gakharia and about his collusion with Saakashvili himself.
That's how it is, regional policy in Georgia.
