Opposition Not To Expect Drastic Changes After Staff Reshuffle

 

Tbilisi. August 30 (Prime-News) – Parliamentary opposition estimates yesterday’s staff reshuffle as an attempt to create “effect of change”, failing to have any reflection on country’s development.

Davit Zurabishvili, the leader of the parliamentary faction “Democratic Front”, told Prime-News that the motive of the aforementioned staff reshuffle was obscure and vague for him, as the motto, structure and system of the Georgian government remains unaffected.

Zurabishvili deems that Chipashvili was not reshuffled; he was dismissed, as the post of ambassador cannot be compared to the post of the minister.

Zurabishvili stated that the appointment of Davit Tkeshelashvili as the Minister of Labour, Healthcare and Social Affairs of Georgia surprised him greatly. “Tkeshelashvili has not got any experience in the medical sphere I wonder how he plans to cope with his future duty,” admitted Zurabishvili.

Zurabishvili refrains from making any speculations.

Pikria Chikhradze, one of the leaders of the parliamentary opposition, does not expect any changes after the staff reshuffle. Chikhradze considers that the ruling party will use the staff reshuffle for its election campaign.

According to Pikria Chikhradze, Lado Chipashvili was not able to meet with the expectations of the Georgian government as he failed to cope with his duties and responsibilities.

Lado Chipashvili, Minister of Labour, Healthcare and Social Affairs of Georgia, left his post in consequence of staff reshuffle. Lado Chipashvili will be appointed as the Ambassador of Georgia to Czech Republic.
