I think the public support for this issue is clear and there is a quiet discussion. Such a statement made today the Chairman of the Parliament.

“I think it’s important when it comes to our foreign partners not to bring too much emotion into this discussion. The discussion is going very well and calmly. I think the public support for this issue is clear. Reaction of the opposition, their silence shows us that they do not have any criticism towards this issue, the only thing is that they do not dare to support, because so far they have some fear and evasion towards their task givers.

So the issue is quite clear. Those changes, which are presented in the form of constitutional amendments and law, will be the subject of public debate. The whole society will be involved in this issue, and of course, what the society will determine in the end is the rule that should be approved as a law in this country.

The arguments are simple, the challenges that our country has and it seems that there is a trend in the world, it is important to establish in time what is the position of the society in relation to this issue. That’s why it’s important to react to it right now. We see that there are countries where it has reached the point where high officials have to make political statements against this propaganda. These discussions have reached the point of absurdity, I will not repeat the quotes and examples, but the society and the discussion that is taking place in our society today confirms that people see these risks, and our citizens wish that these risks were insured. This is done by the Government, which represents its own people and ensures the pursuit of its people’s interests”, - said Shalva Papuashvili.
