EU special mediator has been holding meetings will all parties on Monday to prepared for expanded consultations on March 30. Christian Danielsson explained that meetings today aimed at exploring the ways to implement the most difficult points of the EU mediation effort.

The mediator called the negotiations process difficult.

“Democracy requires taking into account the other party’s interests. And it means compromise from all sides. I have told the party leaders that tomorrow, I will put the text on the table. The aim is to build a sustainable framework for the future. It is also a way to bridge the lack of trust. It will address the need for systemic reform to increase public confidence in the electoral process and the judiciary. In the end, it is up to the parties to take the responsibility to sign such a document.

The EU mediator said it would be an opportunity for the leaders to demonstrate their democratic maturity. If they do, there will only be winners and, in particular, one major winner, the people of Georgia.

EU mediator Christian Danielsson returned to Tbilisi on Sunday to help the opposition and the government reaching an agreement. Danielsson said he would stay in Georgia for three days. He has already met the Georgian NGOs, PM, President, the ruling party and the opposition. An expanded meeting of all the parties is planned for Tuesday.
