Президентские выборы в Грузии назначены на 28 октября

Выборы следующего президента Грузии состоятся 28 октября. Об этом в среду заявил действующий президент Георгий Маргвелашвили. По его словам, дата была согласована с премьер-министром.

Это будут последние выборы президента Грузии всенародным голосованием. При недавно одобренных конституционных изменениях президенты Грузии впоследствии будут избираться парламентом. Должность президента Грузии потеряла большую часть своей исполнительной власти в 2012 году после изменений в конституции, осуществленной тогдашним правительством Единого Национального Движения.

Октябрьские выборы рассматриваются как проверка популярности правительства Грузинской мечты. Правящая партия еще не выбрала своего кандидата, а председатель партии Бидзина Иванишвили ранее намекнул, что партия может решить поддержать беспартийного кандидата.
