British Embassy in Georgia called on the political parties to sign the agreement, proposed by European Council President Charles Michel. The embassy positively appraises the achieved progress.

“Welcome progress towards resolution of the political crisis. Call on all political parties who have not yet signed the agreement to have the courage to do so, in the interests of Georgia’s citizens and the country’s continued Euro-Atlantic progress,” the British Embassy posted a statement on the social network.

The European Council President Charles Michel presented a new document to the political parties on April 18. According to a new document, if the ruling party wins less than 43 per cent of electoral support in local polls, early parliamentary elections will be called in 2022. Also, the parties must discuss two cases perceived as politicized within a week after the agreement signed. Ruling Georgian Dream and several oppositional political parties expressed readiness to sign renewed EU-backed compromise paper.
