Why does the Christmas tree need a slogan, without it the New Year will not come?

“Why does the Christmas tree need a slogan, without it the New Year will not come?”, said the leader of the Citizens party Aleko Elisashvili, speaking about New Year’s slogans.

According to him, now it is a shame to say that there is peace in the country.

“Why should a slogan be written on the Christmas tree? This is not an election banner, what does it have to do with it? Light the Christmas tree, hang toys on it and that’s it. Kakha Kaladze became a good football player in Kyiv, he lived there for many years, he should have at least a little solidarity. Kyiv is being bombed, they have no electricity and heating, and at that time you are painting a Christmas tree with some kind of sign of victory. Why can’t he write his real campaign slogan? Is it embarrassing, after the incident in Vake Park, to call it “a city full of life”? If Kaladze wants a New Year’s slogan, he should write “a city full of Russian deserters” because Russian deserters are everywhere in Tbilisi. This is true and it is a shame to talk about it now, to point a finger at the fact that “we have peace.” As if we have peace thanks to Kaladze. We have peace because Putin has not yet decided to attack us, and not because Kaladze has air defenses installed. This is insanity. Why does the Christmas tree need a slogan, the New Year will not come without it? Well, let Kaladze write – “a city full of life,” said Aleko Elisashvili.
