Chairman of the parliamentary opposition political group "European Socialists" Fridon Indzhiya at the plenary session of the Parliament emphasized the shortcomings of the work of diplomatic missions and embassies of Georgia abroad.

"Who is responsible for the circulation of lies and baseless, biased actions against our country on the part of some European parliamentarians or former politicians?" At the same time, in the country where these international institutions are located, a highly paid ambassador works with his diplomatic corps, and his direct responsibility is to prevent similar actions against the state..." - said Fridon Indzhiya.

According to his words, it is necessary for the relevant ministries and state departments to implement structural and personnel changes, to take effective steps for the immediate solution of these problems.

"The obligation of the Supreme legislative body is to exercise supervision and control over governmental structures." First of all, this is done by the parliamentary majority, because it is responsible for everything. We - the party "European Socialists", considering ourselves as a constructive opposition, are obliged to comment on the shortcomings, and present our vision of their solutions.

The Parliament of the country is the main body that forms the internal and external policy of the state along with the executive power.

I want to draw your attention to the effectiveness of the work of the Georgian diplomatic corps and missions abroad, which are the face of the Georgian state, and they are entrusted with a greater mission in the construction of the Georgian state.

I think that the mechanism of appointing ambassadors and officials of the diplomatic corps of Georgia is somewhat vague and unclear. The Parliament approves and appoints members of the Supervisory Councils of various departments and listens to their reports, we pass laws even in the case of a veto, and we cannot appoint ambassadors for months?! What we are dealing with is to judge you. The status of the ambassador is 100 times higher than the status of the members of the Supervisory Councils of various departments, which we appoint here. 

For example, let's take the ambassador of Georgia to France... Who is she, what does she do? By what criteria was it appointed? In my opinion, no one knows her, she hasn't done anything, and if she did, tell me what she did?  

Tell me who is responsible for those baseless, biased actions directed against our country through the circulation of lies on the part of some current MEPs or former politicians... At the same time, in the country where these international institutions are located, we have a highly paid ambassador with his diplomatic corps, whose direct duty is to prevent actions directed against the state, to make every effort to provide the world community with correct and reliable information in the state where it operates, to provide it by all means, to regularly disseminate information, making statements, holding press conferences , publishing and distributing information bulletins. То есть, to open the veil of lies. The ambassador should not sleep during the day or at night, he should use the talent, skill and wit inherent in Georgians. And at this time, there is complete emptiness in France in this sense, how long will it last?!

Also, I would like to note the importance of the role of diplomats in attracting foreign investments, bringing modern technologies to the country. Основными критериами при экспрессия производства для diplomats быть быть - strengthening of foreign trade relations, assistance in the development of economic relations between countries, quantitative indicator of the return of emigrants to the homeland, which in my opinion should be one of the main criteria. At the same time, diplomats must be motivated, whether financially or from a career point of view.

I welcome the actions of our government, but I want more. The world is changing every day, there is a new redistribution, and we should not stand aside. We must find our place. Let's be more pragmatic, not wasting time and energy on issues that are not in the interests of Georgia. We will not be in illusions, we will not be in a hurry, everything must be estimated with a sober mind... What will be in 15-20 years, life will show, we are not the country to manage or influence these processes».
