Carl Hartzell: I hope constitutional amendments will be backed by 142 votes

I welcome key constitutional amendments passed in 2nd reading, – EU Ambassador to Georgia Carl Hartzell wrote on Twitter.

“I welcome key constitutional amendments passed in 2nd reading. Regret the narrow margin and hope the spirit of 8 March agreement will be reclaimed, incl. the 142 votes backing it then, in view of final vote on 29/6”, – EU Ambassador wrote.

With 115 votes in favour and three against, the Georgian parliament has passed constitutional amendments on electoral change in the second reading today.
