Giorgi Gakharia, the leader of the For Georgia party, claims that the resolution of the European Parliament regarding the killing of Tamaz Ginturi by the Russian occupation forces once again confirms who is the “guarantee of longstanding peace and who is the enemy” of Georgia.
“Resolution of European Parliament again demonstrates the true values of the EU, who is the friend of Georgia, defender of our statehood and sovereignty, guarantee of longstanding peace and who is the enemy. On November 8th, while EU was adopting its historic decision on Georgia’s candidacy, Tamaz Ginturi was brutally murdered by occupants for defending our freedom, dignity and faith. Recent developments clearly demonstrate that Georgian people are on the right side of history and so is the EU. Unfortunately the Government of Georgia is way behind”, he tweeted.
European Parliament (EP) on Thursday condemned the murder of Tamaz Ginturi and the illegal abduction of Levan Dotiashvili and called for a thorough investigation into this and other murders.
“Georgian citizen Tamaz Ginturi killed, and Levan Dotiashvili abducted, by the Russian occupation forces in the occupied Tskhinvali region of Georgia.
Parliament urges the Russian Federation to implement the EU-mediated 2008 Ceasefire Agreement, withdraw all occupation forces, and release all Georgian citizens in the illegal custody of the occupation regime,” reads the statement.
