Parliament Speaker slams Brussels for ‘silence’ over ‘violent storming’ of President’s Palace

Georgia’s Parliament Speaker Shalva Papuashvili has criticised Brussels for failing to condemn the violent attack on the President’s Palace, now in its 13th day.

Writing on social media on Friday, Papuashvili said “It has been 13 days, and Brussels has not condemned the violent storming of the President’s Palace. It is shameful.”

The Georgian law enforcement have arrested dozens of individuals, including opposition leaders, for violence during the October 4 protest, amid the country’s municipal vote.
