Kinzinger: All Parties Must Compromise to Achieve Democracy

Compromises must be made by all parties involved to achieve the democracy and freedom they seek, - Congressman Adam Kinzinger said, echoing the recent meeting with the Speaker of the Georgian Parliament Archil Talakvadze.

The Congressman assessed the meeting as "productive" and noted he “appreciates Talakvadze making the effort to visit and discuss the importance of the alliance.”

“After our meeting, I engaged in dialogue with various parties involved in Georgia’s political crisis. While progress was made, it became apparent to me that there would continue to be unresolved differences between the opposition and the ruling party.

"Democracy is not easy, and while protests are normal in a free country, they must remain peaceful. Citizens should live with the assurance that their justice system will be fair to all, independent, and without regard for political affiliation,” he stressed.
