Bakradze: the Protests Will be Stopped if the Gov't Agrees to the German Model
Davit Bakradze, the leader of the European Georgia opposition party has explained how and when the protests end. He has reported that if the government agrees to adopt the so-called German model, the protests will be stopped.
“We - the responsible opposition - have taken the responsibility for the protests to be peaceful and nonviolent. The way out [of the crisis] is the so-called German model. This is the model that ensures fair elections and it can be adopted within the nearest three weeks with 76 votes. If the government agrees to it by the end of December, the protests will stop and the crisis will end,“ says Bakradze to PalitraNews.
Bakradze is convinced that the Government has to make a compromise if the ruling party wants to return to the normal course of events.
“We will have a fair electoral system in the country and we will return to the normal course. For this purpose, the authorities should refrain from bringing lawmakers to the parliament behind the yellow buses and take steps to reach a political compromise,” Bakradze claims.
