Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask Her Majesty’s Government what is their assessment of recent political resignations in Georgia and accusations that members of the United National Movement are being investigated.

The recent political resignations are a matter for the Georgian government. We look forward to developing good working relationships with the new incumbents. It is fact that a number of opposition United National Movement party members are currently under investigation. In our dealings with the Georgian government and relevant authorities we have been clear that all investigations should be transparent, evidenced-based and follow due legal process.
