Tbilisi.The newsletter gives an overview of the donations made by political parties from July 1 through September 30, 2023. From the trends that have been identified, particularly noteworthy are the donors of the Georgian Dream, more than half of whom are individuals connected with companies producing wine or other alcoholic beverages.
A considerable part of them have been receiving various types of subsidies, preferential loans, or public procurement contracts from the state for many years.
In addition, some of the donations raise the suspicion that they are made through fictitious donors, which is a violation of the law.
