French Ambassador to call on gov't to protect minorities, journalists

French Ambassador to Georgia Diego Colas called on the Georgian government to protect all, including the minorities and press.

“We, diplomats, had a meeting yesterday at the Ministry of Interior. We reaffirmed strong disappointment with the breakdown of constitutional order, massive violations of human rights on July 5 in Tbilisi. Instead of divisive words, we called on the government to recommit to protect all, including minorities and press,” French Ambassador tweeted.

Fifty-five persons, among them fifty-three media representatives, were assaulted during the anti-Tbilisi Pride rally on July 5, according to the Interior Ministry. Tbilisi Pride cancelled the scheduled march amid violent protests.
