US Ambassador to Georgia Robin Dunnigan met with Georgian journalists who are “working bravely to inform the public”.
As the embassy writes in a statement shared on social media, the media is the cornerstone of democracy. The embassy condemns the “violence against the media and citizens of Georgia” carried out by Georgian Dream in recent days.
“Media is the cornerstone of democracy. Ambassador Dunnigan visited journalists who work bravely to inform the public and report truths that might otherwise remain hidden. We condemn the violence perpetrated by Georgian Dream on the media and citizens of Georgia in recent days. Media representatives should have the opportunity to carry out their important work without fear of violence and repression,” the statement said.
