Parliamentary delegation participates in the summit of the international platform of Crimea
Shalva Papuashvili, together with the parliamentary delegation, is participating in the first parliamentary summit of the international Crimean platform in Croatia.
"At the Crimean platform, we will have the opportunity for parliamentary delegations to once again express their solidarity with Ukraine," said the Speaker of the Georgian Parliament.
According to him, Georgia knows what Russian aggression means and how important it is to respond appropriately from the international community.
"About our delegation and my speech, based on Georgia's experience, we will have a conversation about what Russian aggression means, what the international community's inappropriate response was at the time, and what should be the correct response to Russian aggression.
We are a country that has experienced Russian aggression several times and we know very well what the right reaction should be. Based on our experience, we will talk about what should be meant by solidarity with Ukraine", said Shalva Papuashvili.
Within the framework of the summit, the Speaker of the Parliament addresses the participants.
43 delegations of 32 parliaments, 5 international parliamentary organizations and 26 parliament chairpersons are participating in the first parliamentary summit of the Crimea International Platform.
Within the framework of the visit, bilateral meetings of the Speaker of the Parliament and the parliamentary delegation are also planned.
Levan Ioseliani attends the opening of 10th International conference of Election Administrations
It is very important to agree that the elections in this country should be held transparently, political parties should prepare for the elections, and on the day of the elections, it should be decided who deserves to be in power, said Levan Ioseliani, Deputy Speaker of the "Citizens" Party, at the 10th International Conference on Election Administrations.
According to him, one of the topics discussed at the conference is the implementation of the electronic election system in Georgia, which already exists in many democratic countries.
"I am attending a very important conference, which serves one of the very important goals for our country - it is the introduction of electronic elections in Georgia, which is happening for the first time on such a scale and which should bring an absolutely different attitude towards elections in our country. The elections should no longer be the subject of controversy, heated discussions between people and parties. At least on the day of the elections, we should have the feeling that there is no question mark regarding the elections", said Levan Ioseliani.
He also talked about the problems that exist in the country during the pre-election period.
"Certainly, in the pre-election period, there are many problems related, among others, to bribery of votes, use of administrative resources, and these problems still exist today. Today, we are talking about completely changing the administration of the election day, which should insure the election day from such types of problems, although this does not rule out that we will not have similar challenges in the pre-election period," Ioseliani said.
