Hope, under the conditions of the incumbent US ambassador, this indisputable condition will be fulfilled, which implies the lifting of sanctions imposed on judges. Such a statement made today Mamuka Mdinaradze, the leader of the parliamentary majority.

“I think it’s possible under the new Ambassador, Ms. Dunnigan. It wouldn’t be possible under Ms. Degnan, because Ms. Degnan seemed to have other motivations that we cannot see under Ms. Dunnigan.

So I’m hopeful that under the incumbent ambassador, this undisputed condition will be fulfilled, which implies the lifting of sanctions for judges.

We must protect any of our citizens, especially independent and honest judges, and therefore sanctions against Chkhikvadze and others must be lifted, since this generates great aggression, false aggression, including among citizens who are prisoners of the psychological terror carried out by the [United] National Movement”, - said Mamuka Mdinaradze.
