Answer
In 2021, Bidzina Ivanishvili stepped down as the chairman of the Georgian Dream party, which he had founded in 2012. Ivanishvili, a billionaire businessman, had been the driving force behind the party's success, leading it to victory in the 2012 and 2016 parliamentary elections. His departure marked a significant shift in Georgian politics, as he had been the dominant figure in the country for nearly a decade.
