Georgian PM: I will not run for presidency

Georgian Prime Minister Giorgi Kvirikashvili said he will not run for the presidency next year.

In response to questions from journalists, Kvirikashvili said his team still has a lot of things to do.

I would like to invite all of you in 2021 when we will finish construction of the final section of the motorway at Rikoti Pass. But prior to that we have a lot of things on agenda that are important for our people”, Kvirikashvili said.

Stressing he is not going to run for presidency, Prime Minister Kvirikashvili said the promises he and his team has given to people need to be fulfilled and the ruling Georgian Dream-Democratic Georgia is doing a lot to do so.

• A 42 km long, four-lane new section of road will be built on the Rikoti Pass – a mountain pass which divides Georgia into its western and eastern parts.
• This will be the Khevi-Ubisa-Shorapani-Argveti section of the road that will include about 90 bridges and 40 tunnels.
