Georgian Charter
Political agreement amongst the Georgian opposition
The Georgian Charter (Georgian: ქართული ქარტია) is a plan introduced by President of Georgia Salome Zourabichvili in response to the protests against foreign agents bill in 2023–2024. The goal of the charter is to consolidate the pro-Western opposition under one symbolic banner as a counterweight to the increasingly Euroscepticist government of Georgian Dream. One of its key objectives is to establish a technical government after the parliamentary elections on October 26, 2024, to ensure a democratic transition and implement the necessary reforms for Georgia's accession to the European Union. Salome Zourabichvili announced the Georgian Charter on May 26, 2024, Georgia's Independence Day.
Aims
The Georgian Charter aims to establish a temporary parliament after the October elections, holding only one session to make crucial decisions for returning the country to the path of Euro-Atlantic integration, followed by early parliamentary elections under free and fair conditions. A key component of the charter is that the government responsible for implementing this action plan would be appointed by the president of Georgia.
At first, Zourabichvili refused to speculate on potential prime minister candidates or election runners, emphasizing the need to focus on implementing reforms rather than on leadership positions. She urged all to reject personal political ambitions. When asked who would ensure adherence to the Charter's promises, the President stated that she, along with the Georgian people, would play a crucial role in holding parties accountable. She warned that any deviation from these principles could lead to a loss of voter confidence in the 2025 elections.

The citation trail is more important than the brevity of the summary: it shows where individual claims can be examined in context. The source revision retrieved here is dated Jul 28, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q130235824. None of the 1 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 2023, 2024 and 2025.
