Proportional election is the essential step for a democratic development of the country and I hope that each Member of Parliament (MP) will fully share the responsibility assumed towards democratic development of the country and each individual citizen when voting. It was stated by Giorgi Gakharia, Prime Minister of Georgia at the Executive Government Meeting today.
Head of Government of Georgia responded to the political process witnessed at the Parliament of Georgia in recent days and noted that the governing political team has a solid position on the issue.
"We have already stated our position and I will repeat it again that proportional election with a zero threshold was a kind will and decision of our political team, which was certainly a response to the urge for accelerated development of democratic process in the country. Nothing has changed to this end. We remain on the same position and strongly note that proportional election is an essential step for the democratic development of the country and I hope that each MP will fully share the responsibility assumed towards the democratic development of the country and each individual citizen when voting. I am confident that this responsibility will be fully shared by all" concluded the Prime Minister of Georgia.
