The tangible progress made by Georgia is mentioned in the report published by the authoritative research center Varieties of Democracy (V-Dem). Georgia is in the top five in the world among countries with democratic status in terms of long-term improvement of democracy (2010-2020).

Deputy Minister of Justice, Tornike Cheishvili evaluated the report of the Varieties of Democracy today. According to him, Georgia's progress is a result of the reforms implemented in recent years:

"Another report has been published by an authoritative international study, which talks about the tangible progress achieved by Georgia. The report reviews the democratic reforms that have taken place in Georgia, including the protection of basic human rights. This concerns freedom from torture, freedom of expression, the establishment of a very high standard of protection of other fundamental rights. It is important that the research indicators are a logical result of the reforms that have been implemented in our country in recent years, and it is also important not only to improve the legal framework, but also to implement these reforms.

According to Tornike Cheishvili, work on these issues will continue, which will allow the country to continue to succeed in international rankings.

The Varieties of Democracy (V-Dem) is one of the few projects based on the World Bank's Global Governance Indicators.
