The European Court of Human Rights [ECHR] is a body of the Council of Europe, which directly said and recognized the guilt of Saakashvili in the Girgvliani case. Such a statement made the Speaker of the Georgian Parliament, while commenting the amendment related to Mikheil Saakashvili, made to the European Council resolution.

“This is an attempt to rewrite history and of course we must not allow it. We will not be right, nor will the European Council be right, if we rewrite history with such records.

To put everything aside, the ECHR is a body of the Council of Europe, which directly said and recognized the guilt of Mikheil Saakashvili in the Girgvliani case. Such amendments to the resolution cast a shadow on the document.

I hope that in the future the members of the Council of Europe Assembly will look at the texts related to Georgia from this responsibility, since rewriting history is not the right thing to do and we should have an appropriate response to all such attempts”, - said Shalva Papuashvili.
