GYLA'S Assessment of the Events of February 23rd
Tbilisi. Georgian Young Lawyers Association releases a statement on the assessment of the events of February 23rd.
“Unfortunately, the Georgian government has failed to defuse the current political crisis and de-escalate the ongoing processes through peaceful negotiations.
The authorities did not heed the multiple calls. The arrest of the leader of the opposition party through the police forces has aggravated the current situation. It is important that the Georgian government take constructive steps to bring the country out of the political crisis, while also preventing interference with the right of assembly/ demonstration and allowing demonstrators to exercise their constitutionally guaranteed rights”.
