Foreign pressure brought to bear on Georgia court – Speaker of Parliament

As a result of the activities of non-governmental organizations (NGOs), the involvement of foreign organizations in justice issues has become tantamount to an attack on the judicial system, Speaker of the Georgian Parliament Shalva told reporters on March 31. Papuashvili.

The pro-Western opposition and NGOs in Georgia claim that the judicial system in Georgia is controlled by a pro-government clan, so NGOs and embassies of Western countries should verify the integrity of judges; we are talking about introducing investigative control.

“Thanks to various NGOs seeking political influence, the participation of foreign organizations in justice matters today amounts to attacks on the judiciary, hostile rhetoric against judges and moral terror against their families, in other words, everything that is anti-European.”Papuashvili said.

According to him, the goal of the attacks is to discredit the Georgian court and damage the reputation of the state, so parliament will do everything necessary to suppress these attacks.

Recall that the Georgian media published a recording of a meeting of the Supreme Court on March 11, at which the judges discussed the issue of investigative control, and the President of the Supreme Court Nino Kadagidze spoke very harshly on this issue .
