Vice-Speaker of the Parliament of Georgia: It's best if we all visit Ukraine together, I decided to coordinate it

Georgian parliamentarians representing the opposition decided to visit Ukraine, to visit Bucha.

 

Levan Ioseliani, Deputy Speaker of the Georgian Parliament and a member of the opposition Citizens' Party, said: "To show our "fierce unity," it is best if we all visit Ukraine together. Therefore, as deputy speaker, I decided to coordinate the process and have already received the consent of all opposition parties in the parliament."

 

He also added: "Today, based on the international situation, the expression of active support and assistance to Ukraine is needed more by Georgia than by Ukraine. Our party leader Alexander Elisashvili has been fighting in Ukraine for a month to show it. After the events in Bucha, all the opposition politicians wanted to go there one by one and express condolences from our country. However, I think in order to show our unity now, it's best if we all visit Ukraine together. That's why I, as deputy speaker, decided to coordinate it and have already received the consent of all the opposition parties in parliament."

 

Ioseliani expressed hope that since speaker Shalva Papuashvili was unable to visit Bucha, members of the ruling party will join the Georgian delegation, adding that it is time "to show unity.

 

George Vashadze, leader of Georgian opposition party Agmashenebeli Strategy expressed the same position. Meeting with journalists he said, "The opposition is active in this process, I'll talk with my colleagues and we must make the opposition go to Bucha and say the word of Georgia.

 

Note that Georgian Parliament Speaker Shalva Papuashvili called the proposal he received from Kyiv to visit the Ukrainian city of Bucha "inappropriate," Novosti-Georgia writes.

 

"This support and partnership of our countries does not deserve attempts by high-ranking Ukrainian officials to separate the Georgian people from their government, demands to open a second front in Georgia, groundless diplomatic demarches, baseless accusations of smuggling or accusations of warming their hands on the misfortunes of Ukrainians," reads a statement released on Papuashvili's Facebook page.
