Georgian President Salome Zurabishvili has called for a 'national agreement' at a New Year's reception she hosted for the ruling Georgian Dream party and opposition leaders at Orbeliani Presidential Palace.
Zurabishvili said that both the ruling party and opposition members should strive to reach a consensus by listening to each other and exchanging opinions.
"Obviously, everyone's goal is to reconcile, which I'd rather call a national agreement process... It is crucial to move this process ahead," Agenda.ge cited her as saying.
Opposition's United National Movement, European Georgia, Droa, and Lelo party leaders did not attend the reception. However, members of the Lelo parliamentary faction - Pikria Chikhradze, Ana Natsvlishvili, and Salome Samadashvili took part in the meeting.
