Public Defender of Georgia

Salome Zurabishvili: 20% of our territory is occupied by Russia, but this did not divert Georgia from the European path and will not stop us in the future - everything is not happening as Russia wants
Mamuka Khazaradze: a European platform of national resistance should be created with joint forces, in which process we consider the most important thing is close coordination with President Salome Zurabishvili
Administration of the President: the face-to-face meeting between Salome Zurabishvili and Jim O'Brien lasted longer than the scheduled time - the content of the conversation is not public
The participants of the rally gathered near the Parliament blocked Rustaveli Avenue
Deputies of "Georgian Dream" enter the parliament with the help of police forces
Foreign Ministers of Latvia, Estonia, Iceland and Lithuania will visit Georgia on May 15
Irakli Kobakhidze: Changes from our side cannot be planned due to the fact that tomorrow this law will be adopted in the third reading – between May 14 and 28, it is possible to agree positions and then reflect them in the veto bill
Salome Zurabishvili: This law is Russian and no question - "Well, what is Russian in it" can't change that, write and ask - the Prime Minister's speech is also Russian
President: Georgia once again showed the world that it will not allow the European future to be called into question, it will not allow "Russian law"
Shalva Papuashvili: Mrs. Salome has chosen her own path - it is the path that is against the interests of Georgia and the Georgian people
President: It would be a great shame for any person to put a sign of equality between young people and Berbichashvili - I did not hear so many threats, hatred, beatings, violence during the week of passion, and from officials
Salome Zurabishvili: We see violence: beating of opponents, intimidation, crackdown on demonstrations, repressions and other cruel methods, this has nothing to do with Europe, these are actions characteristic of an authoritarian regime
Salome Zurabishvili: Some people make an unworthy equation between friends and enemies
Salome Zurabishvili: An attack was also carried out on the constitution, where the course of Georgia's foreign policy is clearly expressed - when you are in power, you cannot call the youth of this country satanists
Salome Zurabishvili: The statements made by Bidzina Ivanishvili were very provocative towards you, also towards the population of Georgia - we are in a tense situation, my request is to make high-level visits until the end of May
Salome Zurabishvili: Responsibility for what is happening today or will happen tomorrow and the day after, of course, fully rests with the Georgian authorities - the reintroduction of this draft law was a provocation against people
President meeting with ambassadors of EU member states
President: I vetoed the so-called offshore law and I will veto all the bills that are against Georgia's European and Euro-Atlantic aspirations
Steven Blockmans: If Georgia misses the opportunity to get closer to the EU, it will take a long time to repair the damage caused by the autocratic regime
