Mikheil Daushvili, a member of the For Georgia party, believes the adoption of the Transparency of Foreign Influence law may threaten Georgia’s policy of non-recognition of occupied territories.

Daushvili voiced these concerns during a session of the Legal Affairs Committee, where Parliamentary Secretary Giorgi Mskhiladze presented the President’s veto on the bill.

“Currently, our partner and friendly states are publicly expressing their stance on this law. It’s becoming increasingly evident that there’s a serious risk of our country facing international isolation. Given that the policy of non-recognition of the occupied territories is closely linked, and our allied states are the main supporters of this policy, do you think this law and the actions taken by the Georgian Dream, including total violence and terror against citizens, are putting the non-recognition policy in jeopardy? If the country does become internationally isolated, what risks might we face in terms of the non-recognition policy? Who bears the responsibility for the non-recognition of the occupied territories?” asked Mikheil Daushvili.
