General Secretary of "Strong Georgia - Lelo" Irakli Kupradze stated that the mentioned process is not legal and represents a political reprisal. According to him, the fate of the process is already decided, which, as Kupradze explained, is confirmed by Irakli Kobakhidze's statement regarding the days remaining until the banning of the parties.
