US Politicians Criticized for Not Recognizing Georgia’s Elections Results
Politicians from some foreign countries are not accepting the results of Georgia’s recent elections. Despite using new technology that makes everything transparent, and organizing the elections much better than before, these politicians are spreading false information.
Nikoloz Samkharadze, a member of Georgia’s parliament, spoke out against this at a meeting with other politicians from Europe and America. He said that these foreign politicians are making accusations without proof, which is not only bad for the organization watching over the elections (OSCE), but also undermines the choice made by the Georgian people.
One American congressman, Joe Wilson, was specifically criticized by Samkharadze. He called the October elections in Georgia rigged. However, Samkharadze pointed out that there is no report from a trusted international organization saying that the elections were unfair.
Samkharadze also mentioned that some foreign politicians are not condemning the “elections” held in Abkhazia, a region of Georgia that is controlled by Russia. This region does not hold free and fair elections, according to many observers.
