Tina Bokuchava

Tina Bokuchava, born on May twenty-ninth, nineteen eighty-three, is a prominent Georgian politician and lawyer. She has made significant contributions to her country’s political landscape, serving as a member of Parliament from two thousand twelve until two thousand twenty-five. In June two thousand twenty-four, she was appointed as the Chair of the United National Movement (UNM), a role that underscores her leadership within the party.

Her journey into public service began after her studies in the United States, where she gained valuable insights that she later applied in her home country. Bokuchava initially worked as a diplomat before taking on the role of Deputy Head of the Chamber of Control. Following the electoral victory of the Georgian Dream party in two thousand twelve, she emerged as a vocal critic of the government, successfully securing reelection in both two thousand sixteen and two thousand twenty.

On May eighth, two thousand twenty-three, she was appointed chair of the UNM Faction in Parliament, further solidifying her influence in Georgian politics. Bokuchava was notably one of the MPs who refused to acknowledge the results of the two thousand twenty parliamentary election, which were marred by allegations of widespread voter fraud. This led her to boycott the new Parliament until May two thousand twenty-one, showcasing her commitment to electoral integrity.

Throughout her political career, Bokuchava has faced numerous challenges, including gender-based attacks, yet she remains a steadfast advocate for her party and its principles. Her resilience and dedication to public service continue to inspire many in Georgia.
