This motion for a resolution, tabled pursuant to Rule 110(2) and (4) of the Rules of Procedure of the European Parliament, replacing the motions by the Group of the European People’s Party (Christian Democrats), the Group of the Progressive Alliance of Socialists and Democrats in the European Parliament, the Group of the Alliance of Liberals and Democrats for Europe, the Group of the Greens/European Free Alliance and the European Conservatives and Reformists Group, concerns the situation in Georgia following the legislative elections that took place on 1 October. The international community considered the elections to be free and fair and that the freedoms of association, assembly and expression were respected. Indeed, Georgia adhered to shared values and principles such as democracy, the rule of law, good governance and respect for human rights. Since Georgia is one of the founding partners of the Eastern Partnership and an important partner of the European Union, I would like to congratulate the Georgian people on the progress they have made towards the consolidation of democracy, as demonstrated in the recent elections. All that is needed for Georgia to gain greater admiration from Western European countries is for the Georgian authorities to investigate and prosecute all of the cases of ill-treatment and violence in its prisons, and carry out effective reform of its penitentiary system. I voted in favour of this report and I hope that the new government and the new majority will continue to strengthen cooperation with the EU."@en1
