“Democracy in Georgia is at stake, and all actors, including the Government, must act with full responsibility,” Ambassador of the Czech Republic to Georgia Petr Mikyska commented on the July 5 violent developments in Tbilisi.

“Shocked by scenes of violence, attacks on journalists and NGOs offices in Tbilisi. Perpetrators must be brought to justice immediately, Constitutional rights and freedoms restored. Democracy in Georgia is at stake, and all actors, including Government, must act with full responsibility,” Petr Mikyska tweeted.

Fifty-five persons, among them fifty-three media representatives, were assaulted during the anti-Tbilisi Pride rally, according to the Interior Ministry. The police detained several people for illegally thwarting professional activities of media so far.
