Statement of Transparency International
Tbilisi. Transparency International urges dialogue with civil society during political crisis in Georgia.
‘Transparency International is deeply concerned by the political crisis and backlash against independent civil society groups in Georgia, which risk harming democratic progress in the country and undermining attempts to fight corruption. Transparency International has previously warned about the signs of state capture in Georgia. The failure to proceed with electoral reform weakens the health of Georgia’s democracy and threatens future anti-corruption efforts’ – Is mentioned in the statement.
