We remain concerned that Giorgi Rurua is still in prison, wrote the President of European People’s Party, Donald Tusk on his Twitter page.

“EPP expects the upcoming election campaign in Georgia will be free of vote-buying, intimidation of voters, impunity for violence and abuse of administrative resources, as international monitors reported in the last elections.

EPP welcomed the March 8 Agreement between Georgia’s Government and opposition as a key step to reduce tensions. We remain concerned that Giorgi Rurua is still in prison. We call for full implementation of the Agreement and Rurua’s release”, - twitted Tusk.
