Rati Bregadze: "We Prove our Pro-European Orientation by Deeds and not by False Statements"
"We are acting without undue agitation due to the needs of the Ukrainian state, naturally taking into account our national interests," the Georgian Justice Minister told Imedi TV today.
According to Rati Bregadze, the current government of Georgia is not focused on reprimands and does not mention people and friendly countries every second about the assistance provided. The Minister of Justice also responded to the actions of the opposition and called the discourse on domestic issues instead of Ukraine "very unfortunate.”
The Minister also responded to the opposition's accusations and made it clear that instead of making statements during the Georgian Dream's tenure in power, the government demonstrated the country's commitment to the country's pro-European course.
"It was under the rule of the Georgian Dream that amendments were made to the Constitution, according to which Article 78 of the Constitution appeared, and it was this constitutional record that instructed all constitutional bodies to take all measures within their authority to ensure Georgia's full integration into the European Union and the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. "Here, the Georgian government has expressed its will," - said the Minister.
Rati Bregadze also spoke about disputes against Russia at the European Court of Human Rights. According to the Minister, Georgia has already won two important lawsuits under the Georgian Dream: "It was during the Georgian Dream that Georgia won the case of the illegally deported and the Russian Federation was obliged to pay 10 million euros ... Georgia won the so-called war "For the first time, there is a record in international documents that Russia is an occupier.”
The Minister also touched on the case of the so-called “creeping” occupation, noting that the dispute is continuing in the Strasbourg court and that the government will bring it to an end. According to the Minister of Justice, Georgia has never been so close to Europe as it is today:
“Visa-free travel to the European Union became possible during the rule of the Georgian Dream. Today, Georgia is closer to the European Union than ever before. "We are proving our pro-European nature through deeds and not through false statements."
