Georgian President Salome Zourabichvili submitted a charter to “rebuild trust and to forge a new political reality” in the county ahead of the upcoming parliamentary elections.
The document proposed to the country's opposition parties envisages abolishing “laws harmful to the European path” of the country, “liberating the judiciary” and “restoring trust”, ensuring a “fundamental reform” of the Supreme Council of Justice and creating “appropriate conditions for holding free and fair elections”.
“I propose this plan to political parties [and call on them to] decide by June 1 whether they accept the responsibility of taking and fulfilling these steps before the Georgian people”, Zourabichvili said.
The President also added a “new political model” would be presented to the country’s partners in Brussels, “so we can restore the EU accession process and open accession negotiations as soon as possible”.
The parliamentary elections are scheduled in Georgia for October 26, 2024.
