You must protect everyone without discrimination. You do not defend everyone without discrimination because you are ashamed. Do not be ashamed of our existence. You are ashamed of our protection. The property rights of MPs and their family members have been violated, not to mention Bidzina Ivanishvili, but you are ashamed to talk about this, - the Vice-Speaker of the Parliament, the MP of the Georgian Dream, Tea Tsulukiani, addressed the Public Defender, Levan Ioseliani, who presented an annual report to the Parliament.
Tsulukiani told Ioseliani that human rights law is a balance and the Public Defender has completely missed this balance.
“We are not asking you to praise us, we are asking you, and this is written in the law, to be objective and if we judge by your speech, you were not objective. You could, for example, say what you just said because you received harsh assessments and were forced to say that the Laituri prison has been built, but there is still a problem of overcrowding - this is objectivity. This is what creates the authority of the Public Defender.
You, it seems, do not know human rights law. A person knowledgeable in human rights law will not say that elections are not my topic. The right to free elections is one of the fundamental human rights. I want you to know that yes, elections are your topic. If this is news to you on your second year of term of office, this is a tragedy.
It is directly your topic that people from outside come in and directly interfere with the right of free choice of a Georgian citizen. At this time, you should directly call on the state to prevent the interference of foreigners in the right of free choice of Georgian citizens because this is interference, this is a direct violation of human rights, why didn't you call on the government about this?
What is a foreign MP doing when he comes and teaches a Georgian person who to vote for? - This is interference and we should call on the state to prevent this!
If a Lithuanian comes here and teaches me who to vote for, this is a violation of my rights. Is not this your business?
You are manipulating, you have manipulated the facts. All types of human rights on the territory of Georgia, including the right to property, is your business. There have been mass violations against our citizens, when people, and I hope you understand what I am talking about, were banned from moving last year, who are not involved in politics at all and are members of a politician’s family. This is a constitutional and conventional human right, when their rights of movement are being restricted because their husbands, wives or neighbors are involved in the Georgian Dream party, is this not your business? You should have called on the Georgian government to file a complaint against Britain in Strasbourg, this is your business, I should not have said this, you should have said this, you should have defended everyone without discrimination. You do not defend everyone without discrimination because you are ashamed. Do not be ashamed of our existence. You are ashamed of our protection. Property rights have been violated against the deputies, their family members, not to mention Bidzina Ivanishvili, but you are ashamed to talk about this,” - Tsulukiani addressed the Public Defender.
Regarding this assessment, Levan Ioseliani addressed Tsulukiani, saying that they have different ideas about human rights.
“We obviously have absolutely different ideas about human rights,” - Ioseliani told Tsulukiani.
“You somehow should believe, no matter what Nino Lomjaria’s staff advise you, that the violation of the rights of any person on the territory of Georgia is your business, regardless of who violates this right. Human rights law is a balance, and you have completely missed this balance,” - Tea Tsulukiani addressed Levan Ioseliani.
