"The project of the law on "deoligarchization" presented by the ruling party contradicts the Constitution of Georgia. If this law is adopted in this version, our party will file a lawsuit in the Constitutional Court on the very first day. The Constitution has not been repealed by anyone yet, and if the rule of law exists in this country, the court will make an appropriate decision regarding this law."

📍 "The draft law on "deoligarchization" presented by the ruling party contradicts the Constitution of Georgia. If this law is adopted in this version, our party will file a lawsuit in the Constitutional Court on the very first day. "No one has repealed the constitution yet, and if there is a rule of law in this country, the court will make an appropriate decision regarding this law."

🔹 This was announced by the chairman of the parliamentary political group "European Socialists" Fridon Injia at the plenary session of the parliament, where the parliamentary majority presented the draft law on de-oligarchization in the first reading.

🔹 At the plenary session, the chairman of the political group emphasized the fact that out of the 12 recommendations of the European Commission, the request to adopt the "Law on Deoligarchization" was addressed to Bidzina Ivanishvili, and everyone knows very well about it.

🔹 "They are fighting the winning party, which today is represented by "Georgian Dream". They are fighting against Bidzina Ivanishvili, a person who invested billions in our country in different ways, both under one government and under the previous government. At the same time, in relation to a certain group of people who have withdrawn billions from Georgia, no one votes, it is unnecessary to talk about making any notes in the resolution," said Fridon Injia.

🔹 "Can you imagine if there were 100 Bidzina Ivanishvili in Georgia? And do the same for our country? What would our country be like today? "The current government of Georgia should do everything to ensure that the population does not leave Georgia and, on the contrary, that people who fled due to the twists of fate return to their homeland," said Fridon Injia.

🔹 The chairman of the political group addressed the ruling party from the rostrum of the parliament and urged that the ruling power should stand tall and act only based on the interests of the country.

🔹 "Don't play with us, we are not in kindergarten. We know what is happening and why it is being done. Stand as needed as the winning party. Don't back down," Fridon Injia addressed the members of the majority.

🔹 As for the issue of granting the EU candidate status to Georgia, according to the deputy, Georgia has already been granted the candidate status, since it has already made an official application for this.

🔹 "Granting candidate status to Georgia is only a political issue. Whether we pass this law or what we do, it will not matter much. If they consider it necessary, they will accept us in the European Union, but they need to pass this law in order to remove the person who invests billions in the development of the country. And if they give us any money, it's only to manage our small country," Fridon Injia believes.

🔹 "Don't consider me as a lawyer of a person whom I don't know at all and I have never met." Fridon Injia added.

Chairman of the parliamentary political group "European Socialists" Fridon Injia met with the delegation of the OSCE Office for Democratic Institutions and Human Rights (ODIHR)

🔹 "The already changed rule of election of the head of the election administration by the supreme legislative body, which provides for the election of the chairman of the CEC with a high quorum, with the consent of 90 deputies, cannot be implemented, and we have the ineffective practice of electing the chairman of the commission every 6 months, which is not useful, acceptable, and what's more , is a hindering factor in the commission's work process. This is the failure and retreat of the ruling party".

🔹 Parliamentary about it Chairman of the political group "European Socialists" Fridon Injia said at the meeting with the delegation of the OSCE Office for Democratic Institutions and Human Rights (ODIHR).

🔹 The purpose of the visit of the OSCE/ODIR delegation to Georgia is to discuss the findings and recommendations presented in the report, to bring the election-related legislation and practice into closer compliance with the obligations undertaken before the OSCE, and to determine the areas of future cooperation and specific steps to be taken.

🔹 According to the chairman of the political group, "According to the new change in the code of conduct, the election process will be conducted by electronic system until 70%. Therefore, it is important to have a special control of the election process at the polling stations before 30%, above Tu 30%, because it is in this part that the greatest danger of election fraud is present. Therefore, it is necessary to have a special approach to this specific situation in order to avoid fraud."

🔹 Fridon Injia believes that the use of administrative resources during the elections is still a big problem, which is manifested in the pressure on the voters.

🔹 "In the existing project, the possibility of using administrative resources has been tightened, but I do not consider this to be enough. There should be such a method of punishment that it is not worth it for a person to falsify", said Fridon Injia.

Fridon Injia – My attitude towards the draft law on de-oligarchization is strongly radical

🔹"My attitude towards the project of the Law on Deoligarchization is strongly negative."

The chairman of the parliamentary political group "European Socialists" Fridon Injia announced this at the meeting of the Legal Affairs Committee of the Parliament of Georgia, where the chairman of the committee Anri Okhanashvili presented the draft law of Georgia "On Deoligarchization".

❓. Based on the Constitution of Georgia, this law is anti-constitutional;

❓Wouldn't it be better to wait for the conclusion of the Venice Commission and then make the appropriate decision?

❓A person, any citizen, who is guaranteed the freedom of assembly by the constitution, is restricted by this law (Article 21);

❓ The definition of the oligarch himself is vague. I don't know if this is good or bad.

❓ Elon Musk, who may be nominated for the presidency in 2024 in the United States, if such a law is passed, will he be removed and no more?

❓ Is there a similar law in any successful country?

❓ The Venice Commission will consider the Ukrainian law, and it will probably be in line with the Ukrainian constitution. Our constitution is different from the constitution of Ukraine, that's why the parliament made a number of changes in it. what comes out The law adopted in Ukraine and based on the provisions of the Constitution of Ukraine, and in what respect will this law be consistent, with the Constitution of Ukraine or with the Constitution of Georgia?

❓ A citizen is restricted from fair procedural rights (Article 31 of the Constitution), an appeal, that is, we enter a person in some register, we do not know whether it is good or bad, for whom it is good and for whom it is bad, and he has no right to appeal this fact;

❓ Another issue – for example, we started to discuss, various proposals came in and it turned out that one of the oligarchs (which I don't know is good or bad) who lives abroad, what should this law do to a citizen who owns a company, voting rights, media means from abroad, finances them, etc. How can this law affect this person, will anything change?

❓ Also minor issues - the case of having a father's name. For example, for me this is an insult. Every Georgian has a father's name...

❓ "having significant influence"; Here are such terms and sentences in this law. Who decided what was important and what wasn't? Here, for example, we have the gold stock 1%, could it be a significant influencer? Could the 51% be needed? Or who determines it in these actions? What is the effective or significant influence? Whether you want it - "must buy and take part in the auction" or in the process of privatization of a large-scale object. What is this large-scale facility? Who defined it and by whose definition are we writing a large-scale object here? It can be one for Ukraine, another for Turkey, which one is for us?

❓ Here are a number of sentences that are not clear. Do we want such a thing? what is the goal Therefore, my attitude towards the project of the "Law on Deoligarchization" is strongly negative.

🔹 The countries of the European Union and some of their representatives here, with the help of false slogans of democracy, rudely try to push us an agenda that is relevant and fruitful for their countries, but dangerous for our country. Which reflects not only their true intentions, but also a real humiliating attitude towards Georgia and the Georgian people.

🔹In 2012, 2016 and 2020 parliamentary elections, presidential and local elections, the Georgian people rejected and defeated the former criminal Saakashvili regime lobbied by Western partners and showed them that the Georgian people will no longer allow evil to prevail in Georgia.

🔹 Have you not thought all this in the background, or hinted to them, as the leaders of our neighboring countries so skilfully use, that it is worth our self-sacrifice to strive for such a union, which imposes such cabal demands on us, and tries, in the interests of their countries, to introduce a way of life where The interests of our country will be protected.

🔹 Are we willingly moving towards such a union that will cause serious damage to the identity that millions of our ancestors sacrificed over the centuries. We are being robbed of our generation's hard-earned freedom and sovereignty.

🔹 And finally, let's look at the history of Georgia, remember when our country was a strong and accountable force, draw parallels with today and take the necessary steps to use both enemies and lovers for the needs of our country.
