The motion for a resolution correctly notes that the recent parliamentary elections in Georgia on 1 October 2012 were largely free and fair and conducted in line with internationally recognised standards. Nevertheless, the International Election Observation Mission identified some shortcomings, which the Georgian authorities will have to address. It is important for the European Union to continue to support Georgia in its efforts to strengthen the institutions of democracy. It should, however, keep out of Georgia’s internal conflicts, including with regard to the breakaway territories of Abkhazia and South Ossetia, and should not place any demands or conditions on Russia. These problems must be resolved locally. Solutions cannot be imposed from outside. Since the motion for a resolution fails to adopt the requisite tone of impartiality in this regard, I abstained from the vote."@en1
