Tea Tsulukiani remains Justice Minister – Issue is solved, we continue working as united team

The issue is solved. We continue working as a united team under conditions of common standpoints – Tea Tsulukiani, Justice Minister said at Governmental Chancellery. “There was a disagreement over certain issues. However, we managed to exchange with viewpoints and reached an agreement,” Tsulukiani said.

On March 11, Justice Minister Tea Tsulukiani did not rule out quitting the post. She told journalists there was an issue which had to be resolved within the scope of her Ministry. Tsulukiani said that if value contradictions occur on this issue “she will step aside”

“There is a discussion on this issue, and I have my own firm position, which does not concern any reform, process or procedure that is now taking place in parliament. This is an issue that, in my opinion, is very important. And if I see that this position is not shared, and there is a contradiction between the values, of course, I will step aside without any doubts,” Tsulukiani said.

Gia Volski, Vice Speaker of the Georgian Parliament said that the issue which Tea Tsulukiani, Justice Minister is talking about is presumably linked to disjointing of Penitentiary Service from the Ministry.
