He is a former football player. In 1995 he became the Russian football champion as part of Sparta-Alania.

In 2016, he became a member of parliament of the ruling Georgian Dream party, but in the summer of 2022 he left the party and founded the Power of the People organization.

It was this organization that initiated the adoption of the law on foreign agents in 2023, which led to a sharp cooling of relations between the Georgian government and the West. And gave rise to talk about the beginning of Georgia’s turn towards Russia.

In the last parliamentary elections in October 2024, Kavelashvili ran on the list of the ruling Georgian Dream party and became an MP.

He is a harsh critic of the opposition and its actions, calling them “inspired by the West” with the aim of “Ukrainizing Georgia” and “drawing the country into a war with the Russian Federation.”
