EU Ambassador to Georgia: We wait for EC President Michel's conclusions
EU Ambassador to Georgia Carl Hartzell says he is waiting for European Council President Charles Michel’s conclusions regarding Georgia.
“I can not say anything at this point, because nothing has been decided, and we are still waiting to see what the conclusions will be from the side of President Michel in Brussels and the topic of the discussion I had was to basically see what conclusions different sides have drowned following the second round,” Hartzell stated on Sunday.
The second EU-mediated attempt to solve political crises in Georgia failed again. Charles Michel’s personal envoy Christian Danielsson said he proposed a solution that puts the country’s interest first to the parties, but none of the political actors agreed on the solution.
European Parliament members issued a statement following the EU-mediated failed talks. MEPs are deeply disappointed with the political leaders in Georgia for their inability to reach an agreement.
The Georgian opposition parties that won seats in the Georgian Parliament of the 10th Convocation believe the 2020 parliamentary elections were a fraud. They have been demanding repeat parliamentary elections and the release of the United National Movement Chair, Nika Melia, and the co-founder of the TV channel Mtavari Arkhi Giorgi Rurua.
