საუბ Talking about military neutrality in Georgia is neither argued nor acceptable today - Fridon Injia

საუბ Talking about military neutrality in Georgia today is neither argued nor acceptable. This was stated by the chairman of the parliamentary political group "European Socialists" Fridon Injia live on Georgian TV.

. “The more security guarantees a country has, the better. "As of today, when there is a redistribution, when there are two big 'monsters' and the Ukrainians are in the middle of it, talking about neutrality, I think it is far from what Georgia can get," he said.

🔹 He said that procedurally a resolution on the neutrality of the country should be adopted by the five permanent members of the UN Security Council, and this resolution should be joined by neighboring countries that want neutrality.

ამიტომ "So I think that at this stage there is no talk of neutrality, especially since the war is not over… Today was the NATO summit, where there was talk of support from the Alliance for Georgia and Ukraine. Talk about neutrality will not be discussed in Georgia today and is not acceptable. "Moreover, the constitution clearly states the Euro-Atlantic course, and so far this article is valid," Injia said, stressing how the Georgian Dream could start talking about neutrality when it included the entry in the constitution itself.

"This step is aimed at overcoming political stability and economic challenges in the country" - "European Socialists" responds to the signing of a document created by the ruling party under the auspices of Charles Michel

Fridon Injia, Chairman of the Parliamentary Opposition Party European Socialists, and the Political Council of the party welcome the signing of the document created by the Georgian Dream under the auspices of the President of the European Union and Council of Europe Charles Michel and express readiness to join the document.
"We believe that this step taken by the Georgian Dream is aimed at overcoming political stability and economic challenges in the country, which is also fully recommended and supported by the international community," the statement said.
The party believes that the decision of the Georgian Dream and the responsibility of the "Dream" to fulfill the articles in the signed document, lays the foundation for a completely new political agenda, which will make the constructive relationship between the ruling party and the opposition even more real.

"Some political forces should be removed from the political scene altogether, because today they are performing a destructive function." - Tamar Kiknadze

"Ordering the population today is not destructive, the population is interested in something else today and, unfortunately, the political establishment is cut off from the interests of the people," said Tamar Kiknadze, a member of the European Socialists' political council, during a visit to the Political Post. According to him, some parties without such activities may disappear from the political scene altogether.

"Some political forces should be removed from the political scene altogether, because today they are performing destructive functions," Tamar Kiknadze said while assessing the current political processes.

"In order for the state to survive and get the population out of the state of starvation, an emergency commission must be set up, which will be headed by the Prime Minister of the country" - Fridon Injia

"In order for the state to survive and get the population out of the brink of starvation, an emergency commission must be set up, headed by the country's prime minister," said Fridon Injia, chairman of the European Socialist Party, addressing a plenary session of the Georgian parliament. He said there has not been a single product left in the last three months that has not become more expensive.

"This increase is from 30% to 69%, it is a product that has also increased in price by 100%." - noted Fridon Injia.

According to him, the country will find itself in a difficult situation if the state does not interfere in the agricultural activities of the peasants.

"Such a practice is very common in European countries, in Asia, as well as in the United States - planned economy or state capitalism, so I think that in some parts if the government does not participate in farming and harvesting, we will find ourselves in a difficult situation," said Fridon Injia.
