We are threatening Georgia with freezing their accession process simply because the majority in this parliament and the Commission don’t like the winners, said the member of the European Parliament, Danilo Della Valle, during the European Parliament debate.

“We had the elections in October in Georgia. According to the official results, Georgian Dream has got 54% and claimed a victory. The president of Georgia did not recognize the results and announced the cases of fraud. The inquiry was launched into the number of cases of electoral fraud. The OSCE published its own report on the state of democratic debate in Georgia. They do not confirm any accusations of large-scale fraud as promoted by the opposition.

But now, nevertheless, we are threatening them with freezing their accession process simply because the majority in this parliament and the commission do not like the winners. At the same time, Moldova, a friend of the West, by a very narrow margin and both sides accused the other of fraud but that has been claimed as a major victory for democracy. It seems like a double standard and hypocrisy”, - said Danilo Della Valle.
