Quotes

` "The United States calls on all political players to continue constructive cooperation for a common goal - Georgia`s democratic and economic development and in the process Euro-Atlantic integration" ` the official said
` "We should understand that if the court accepts the motion of the prosecutor to send Merabishvili and Chiaberashvili to custody, it will not be an ordinary legal act, but an act of moving the country to a new reality. Last October, the peaceful transition of government took place via elections. We had a historic chance to become a perfect, successful democracy. Today, there is a danger of forming an ordinary authoritarian regime of this region, which is to drag the country back as in domestic policy, so in foreign one. I address the government and Prime Minister in particular, think about the outcome of such steps and protect the country from a serious blow" ` the statement says
` "We should accept that the judge will hear the circumstances of the cases and take a decision independently. Whoever is discontent with this decision should hide the emotion and if objects to it, they should do it legally. This is the only way to achieve the independence of the judiciary" ` Konstantine Kublashvili announced
` "The United States condemns the May 17th attack on a peaceful march to mark the international day against homophobia in Tbilisi, Georgia. Such acts of intolerance have no place in democratic societies. The United States places great importance on the protection of the human rights and fundamental freedoms of all people, including lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender persons around the world" ` acting spokesperson said
