Former UNM members set up new political group in parliament

Roman Gotsiridze and Khatia Dekanoidze, the former members of the United National Movement opposition party – the largest opposition group in Georgia in office between 2004-2012 –  on Thursday announced the creation of a new parliamentary group. 

Gotsiridze will chair the group which the lawmakers claimed would be “politically active”. Other details have not been identified so far. 

Both MPs  quit the UNM earlier this year due to intra-party controversies.
