Representatives of Georgia's opposition parties told journalists that they refuse to cooperate with the country's prosecutor's office within the framework of the investigation into possible fraud in the parliamentary elections and demand the international community to start that process.
Earlier on Wednesday, the Prosecutor's Office of Georgia announced that based on the application of the Central Electoral Commission of the country, it started an investigation into possible frauds in the October 26 parliamentary elections. The department announced that it intends to interview anyone who may have information about the violations, but Georgian President SalomeZurabishvili was one of the first, who was summoned for questioning.
"We are not stupid to believe that the prosecutor's office will conduct an honest investigation, and the international mission with the appropriate mandate and authority should implement it, and until then these elections will not have legitimacy and cannot have it," said Salome Samadashvili, one of the leaders of the "Strong Georgia" party. .
According to Zurab Japaridze, a member of the "Coalition for Changes" party, it is unlikely that the opposition and the president will come to the prosecutor's office for questioning, because, according to him, "no one plans to participate in this absurdity." Japaridze claimed that the opposition has evidence of falsifying the election results, but did not provide specific data. At the same time, he announced that they will trust only the international investigation.
