TBILISI (Sputnik) — The Georgian law requires that ministers and the National Security Council's members included in a party list of candidates should step down, making the only exception for the prime minister.

"We have accomplished a lot of projects, and some are still going on. I have moved houses many times in my life and the Energy Ministry was also a home to me. From this day on I am not your minister any more," Kaladze told journalists.

Kaladze who ranks second in the Georgian Dream party list following Georgian Prime Minister Giorgi Kvirikashvili will run the party's electoral campaign after the resignation.
