US Acting Ambassador to Georgia Elizabeth Rudd assesses the ongoing processes in Georgia and says there is a need for dialogue between the parties.

"The United States is concerned about the escalation of political tensions in Georgia. That is why we support the launch of a dialogue between the ruling party and the opposition. For sure, we fully support freedom of expression. Of course, peacefully and within the constitution. Also, we hope that the police will respond equally to all these signs”, - said Elizabeth Rudd.
