Shalva Papuashvili: A few days before the elections, the initiation of a resolution by separate groups of the European Parliament is an attempt to influence the formation of the voters' will, which is categorically against European values

It is clear that the initiation of a resolution by separate groups of the European Parliament a few days before the elections is an attempt to influence the formation of the will of the voters, which is categorically against our common European values, - said the Chairman of the Parliament Shalva Papuashvili at the press conference held at the "Georgian Dream" office.

Papuashvili called on all foreign actors to respect the sovereign right to hold elections free from external influences, which, according to him, is "one of the fundamental principles of the rules-based international order."

"Yesterday's discussion also showed that, fortunately, common sense will be found in the European Parliament, which hopefully, over time, will be able to stop this trend that has strayed from the trajectory of European values. I would like to thank them for their correct assessments and support of the Georgian people."It is my strong expectation that the European Parliament respects the choice made by the Georgian people on October 26 and also calls on the opposition and EU-funded organizations to accept the choice of the Georgian people as a verdict of democracy," said Shalva Papuashvili.
