Gianni Buquicchio: Consensus has to be reached among the political forces of Georgia
Gianni Buquicchio, President of the Venice Commission, addresses the opposition parties with a letter on the constitutional amendments. The letter says that the Venice Commission maintains its position that a solution has to be found through dialogue and the broadest possible consensus.
“Dear representatives of the opposition parties. Thank you for your new letter. The Venice Commission still maintains its position that a solution has to be found through dialogue with the aim of reaching the broadest possible consensus.
This consensus has to be reached among the political forces of Georgia. While it should be based on the opinions of the Venice Commission, it cannot be the role of the Commission to try to impose a concrete solution," says Gianni Buquicchio in a letter dated 25 July.
Opposition parties sent a joint appeal to the Venice Commission and European Structures on the constitutional amendments a week ago.
