We will continue to work together to impose sanctions on those who violate fundamental human rights. Such a statement made today Teona Akubardia, a member of “Gakharia - for Georgia”, at a joint briefing of the opposition parties.

“Yesterday we saw the statements of our Western friends, including Great Britain, which stopped all programs with Georgia, including in the field of defense.

You’ve seen the position of the EU Ambassador, including his scathing assessment and demand for sanctions aimed directly at the authoritarian regime.

We also see the important support that the Georgian people have for the country’s democracy and European future. Condemnation of violence and demand for the release of illegally detained prisoners, voiced by the US Embassy, is an important message against the authoritarian-oligarchic regime.

We continue to work so that the severe fundamental rights violations committed by the oligarchic regime are subject to sanctions”, - said Teona Akubardia.
