They should be banned from participating in elections for 10 years

Reverend Jacob, bishop of Bodbe, says that the opposition, which does not agree to negotiations with the government, should be banned from participating in the elections for 10 years. Reverend Jacob spoke about this during his sermon.

Reverend Jacob devoted a large part of his sermon to the Russian war in Ukraine. In addition, from the pulpit, he made anti-Western and similar statements of government representatives.

"I laugh sometimes... we are a parliamentary country, they don't want to be in the parliament, the different parties speak of distrust of the parliament. Many parties have entered again and are going to negotiations, I may not agree on some things, but they have earned my sympathy when they sit together and try to find a solution together. I thought and There is only one remedy for them - you should be banned from participating in elections for 10 years... I want to remind you of the story of King Erekle, his opponents collected money from Agha-Mohammed Khan and came to take over Tbilisi. They are the ones doing the same thing. Do you have the trust of the people? How many people do you speak for? Georgia needs unity. You still have time to do it, if not, it will still be done. It will be a real relief for 10 years, if they see that they are truly left out, they will still come because of the position. They don't care about Georgia, they have been attacking the church and the country separately for so many years." , - Reverend Jacob said.
