With the amendments to the Law on Grants, there will be a system where the donor must obtain consent, not the NGO. This will be consent not to receive a grant, but to issue a grant, - said the Speaker of the Parliament Shalva Papuashvili.

As he explained, it is important for the Georgian people to know what is being financed in Georgia and whether it is in the interest of the Georgian people.

"Unfortunately, there are many irresponsible donors, with whom we have been talking for months, years about how they should behave responsibly. We see that they give money, and then with this money they do things like advertise the "Molotov cocktail", carry out fascist campaigns, and commit violent acts. When we ask donors about this, they act like it is not their responsibility. They are spending the money of the people of their country and they should behave responsibly. They harm the interests of our society when they finance advertising of Molotov cocktails, etc. Therefore, it is important that the Georgian people know what is being financed in Georgia and that what is happening in Georgia is in the interests of the Georgian people. The system will be that the donor must obtain consent, not the NGO. This will be consent not to receive a grant, but to issue a grant. If the donor wants to issue a grant, he must apply to the government or a subject designated by the government and obtain consent to issue a grant. This will ensure that the process will be fully transparent for citizens and everyone will know what money is circulating, what is being financed, what projects are being financed. In addition, it will be ensured that this is done in the interests of the Georgian people, and not in the interests of the Estonian government, or in the interests of any other country. We are citizens of Georgia and everything should be done in our interests, not in the interests of other peoples and their political interests, which, unfortunately, is the case in some cases," said Shalva Papuashvili.
