The Monitoring Committee has already completed work on a resolution, according to which Ivanishvili's representatives will not be able to return to the Assembly until political prisoners are released and new, fair parliamentary elections are called, - Tina Bokuchava, the chairwoman of the United National Movement, said regarding the Council of Europe resolution.
According to her, work on the resolution has been completed.
“The Monitoring Committee has already completed its work on the resolution, and our expectations have been met. This resolution reiterates the demands of the resolution adopted by the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe at its January session, which demanded the holding of new, free and fair parliamentary elections in Georgia, as well as the release of all political prisoners. This was set as a condition without which representatives of Ivanishvili’s regime would not be able to return to the Assembly. Therefore, commissioner Tsulukiani and Ivanishvili’s other nameless pawns will theoretically return here only as members of the opposition, because we all understand very well that free, fair and democratic parliamentary elections mean the end of Ivanishvili’s regime,” said Tina Bokuchava.
For information, the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe passed a resolution on Georgia by 89 votes to 3. 5 members of the Assembly abstained from voting. The draft resolution states that the Assembly deeply regrets that, despite the Assembly’s decision to ratify the credentials of the Georgian delegation, all its members resigned from the delegation, thus rejecting dialogue, as a result of which there is currently no Georgian delegation in the Assembly. In the view of the Assembly, the participation in its work and its monitoring procedures of a delegation whose credentials were ratified, is not an option, but an obligation.
