The US Embassy in Georgia commented about the court ruling for Nika Melia, Chairman of the opposition United National Movement (UNM) Party.
“We call on the authorities and the opposition to exercise maximum restraint in the wake of tonight’s ruling. Violence serves no one except those who want to undermine Georgia’s stability. This must be resolved peacefully,” the US Embassy tweeted.
