There has been a deliberate campaign of lies about the Prime Minister and his family, nothing has been spent from the budget - Kaladze

Nothing has been spent from the budget, although we remember the years, the rule of [Mikheil] Saakashvili, when private flights, gifts for lovers, children’s education were financed from the budget. Such a statement made today the Mayor of Tbilisi.

“There has been a deliberate campaign of lies about the Head of the Government and his family. For the first time, information was spread about the fact that the Prime Minister used a plane for a personal visit, spent the budget money for it.

Later, it was found out that it was not a budget expense. We declare with full responsibility that not a single tetri was spent from the budget. However, we remember the years, the rule of Saakashvili, when private flights, gifts for lovers, his son’s education were financed from the budget, with people’s money, and it was wrapped up as if Mikheil Saakashvili had a talented son.

I am sure that many people living in this country today have talented kids, even the people in power, but this doesn’t mean that a high-ranking official should finance their family members from the budget.

The Prime Minister, the Government made clarifications regarding the fact that these were personal expenses paid by the Prime Minister”, - said Kakha Kaladze.
