The United States has issued a statement condemning the violence perpetrated by the Georgian Dream party against various groups in Georgia. The groups affected include opposition leaders, journalists, civil society members, and protestors.
The U.S. statement suggests that these acts seem designed to intimidate Georgians from exercising their fundamental freedoms. It further emphasizes that such actions do not aid in returning Georgia to the Euro-Atlantic path desired by the majority of its citizens.
"Georgia deserves better," concludes the statement, highlighting a call for change in the current situation.
