Georgia's President offers Ivanishvili to become Premier
Bidzina Ivanishvili, as the leader of the ruling party, should become Prime Minister, Giorgi Margvelashvili, President of Georgia, has stated.
The "Caucasian Knot" has reported that on June 13, Giorgi Kvirikashvili, the former Prime Minister, resigned, explaining his decision by disagreements with the leader of the "Georgian Dream" Party and referring to the situation in the country.
