Kelly Degnan: October elections are opportunity for Georgia to show commitment to democratic processes

The upcoming October elections in Georgia are arousing great interest and attention, –  said US Ambassador to Georgia Kelly Degnan, commenting on the phone conversation between Georgian Prime Minister Giorgi Gakharia and US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo.

According to Ambassador, US-Georgian cooperation has a very broad agenda.

“It’s always very positive and helpful when our leaders speak. We have a very broad cooperation agenda. Therefore, it is important to have such communication regularly through various channels.

Of course, the October elections are arousing great interest and attention. This is an opportunity for Georgia to show commitment to democratic processes. Free, transparent, fair elections, free from bribery and pressure are the best way for Georgia to show its democratic progress”, – said Kelly Degnan.
