Giga Bokeria on the decision of the Strasbourg Court: We have a great victory as a country - we need a government that will use these tools for the interests of the country

Giga Bokeria, one of the leaders of European Georgia, responds to the decision of the Strasbourg Court.

According to Bokeria, the decision of the Strasbourg court is a victory for Georgia and the most important legal and legitimate political tool in the face of the threat of Putin's Russia. He also noted that Georgia's big problem is that it does not have a government that can effectively use such an important legal and political tool in the country's interests.

"Without any exaggeration, this decision of the Strasbourg Court is an important victory for Georgia, both a legal and a legitimate political tool in the face of this great threat that Putin's Russia and the Russian Federation, while in this form, represent for us, our country and our citizens, and the whole free world.

Of course, in terms of inflicting responsibility for the injustices of the past, it is an unequivocal and significant victory for the future both politically and legally.

Our problem is that we do not have a government that can use such important tools effectively, a government that will have the vision, the faith, the competence, the desire and the task to use it effectively. We saw this in the previous case of victory, when the responsibility of the Russian Federation for the shameful deportation of Georgian citizens and Russian citizens of ethnic Georgian origin from Russia was established, it was a victory and it is a bigger victory in terms of its caliber, but it was also very important and we saw how the current authorities let things slid.

Therefore, we have a great victory as a country, we need a government that will use these tools for the interests of our country", - Bokeria said.

Giga Bokeria's comment was shared by the press service of "European Georgia".
