On December 8, the third president of Georgia, Mikhail Saakashvili, called on opposition parties to hold consultations on the formation of a temporary coalition council that would prepare the country for new elections and regime change. “We need a universal political amnesty and a roundtable on the redistribution of power and the run-up to the elections,” Saakashvili said. The former president and founding leader of the United National Movement (UNM) party added that he has no desire for any position in the government and wants a completely new generation of leaders. He himself will be engaged in the education sector (Mtavari Channel, December 8).
