I wish the United States of America peaceful elections. I think this is a more important issue that the US administration should focus on. I am not waiting for sanctions, we do not think about such issues, - this is how the Speaker of the Parliament of Georgia, Shalva Papuashvili, responded to the statement of the press spokesman of the USA State Department, Matthew Miller.
As Papuashvili explained, it is important that no party has doubts about the results of the elections.
"I wish the United States of America peaceful elections. I think this is a more important issue that the USA administration should focus on. I am not expecting [sanctions]. We don't think about such issues. This attitude that your own party has is that they look outside, they build their agenda on what comments they hear, what assessment they hear from others, not from the Georgian people, that's where the owner of your TV station was led. He didn't even appear at the rally yesterday, he understood that the Georgian people passed judgment on the opposition, because they don't want an independent state, but they want a subordinate state. The Georgian people brought these opposition parties to the corner that belongs to those who are not fighting for democracy, but want to bring the country into the obedience of others.
Matthew Miller is the press spokesman of America, I am the speaker of the Parliament of Georgia. It is their country and their measures. Once again, I wish the United States of America peaceful elections. This is important, the whole world is watching. Peaceful elections are important, and the second thing is that none of the parties have doubts about the results of the elections," Papuashvili said.
In addition, he answered the question of how he would assess the fact that the "Georgian People's Act" should be considered in the United States of America and there is a document on Ivanishvili's impeachment.
"Did they see you or read you?" I remember "Anonymous" from the Soviet Union, if someone wants to spread disinformation using this method, it's a different matter. This introduction of information... you see, we have no reaction. We cannot count the injustice of others and we cannot take responsibility. We have our responsibility to the Georgian people. You can see how well our country is doing in all directions. "The policy of the Georgian people and the government is correct, the one who is wrong in relation to Georgia, history shows that it turns out to be a wrong approach," Papuashvili said.
For information, the press spokesman of the USA State Department, Matthew Miller, stated at the briefing that they are on the side of the Georgian people. In addition, Miller once again spoke about the measures already taken by the USA in response to the actions of the Georgian government and noted that they "will not hesitate" to use additional measures if necessary.
