On May 30, Georgian Prime Minister Irakli Kobakhidze addressed the media at the opening of a new bridge in Tbilisi.

In response to a question from the pro-government media about the alleged "hate campaign" against Georgian Dream members who supported the Foreign Agents Law and their families, Kobakhidze attributed the campaign to the "radical opposition." According to him, the opposition, having lost its influence, was trying to save face with its supporters.
Commenting on the Fair Trees Fund's decision to withdraw a free dental clinic project for children in the western Georgian town of Oni because of the Foreign Agents Law, Kobakhidze blamed the opposition party Lelo and one of its leaders, Badri Japaridze, calling the decision "shameful". He added that the fund was not an independent NGO because its board was chaired by Japaridze, a claim the fund rejected.

Commenting on German Ambassador Peter Fischer's statement that the EU would not open accession talks with Georgia as long as the Foreign Agents Law remained in force, Kobakhidze accused the ambassador of making anti-Georgian statements, claiming that Fischer "cannot be of any value to us." He insisted: "Let me remind you that he went to the pre-election campaign together with Lelo [opposition party]; he went to [the southern Georgian town of] Bolnisi with Lelo leaders. In view of such frivolous actions, I cannot attach much importance to this man's statements... Germany, which has traditionally distinguished itself as a state full of responsibility, should not send such ambassadors to a country like Georgia".

Asked by a journalist about reports that Estonian Foreign Minister Margus Tsahkna's appearance at a rally against the Foreign Agents Law in Tbilisi had not been "agreed upon" with the Estonian prime minister, Kobakhidze commented that Tsahkna's participation in an opposition rally without the consent of his prime minister indicated a " lack of seriousness".
Kobakhidze also criticized President Salome Zourabichvili, sarcastically thanking her for trying to unite the opposition by concocting a "register of foreign agents." He claimed that all opposition parties in Georgia were part of the "collective United National Movement."
