Georgia’s First Vice-Parliament Speaker Tamar Chugoshvili, who is now holding meetings in Washington with Georgian MPs, stresses that the US Senate’s support to the resolution of Georgia’s territorial integrity is of high importance.

The resolution has already been adopted by the House of Representatives. Now it is very important both Republicans and Democrats to vote for the resolution in the Senate, " Chugoshvili stated after the Georgian parliamentary delegation’s meeting with the US Senator Cory Gardner today.
Senator   Cory   Gardner promised us he will show interest in the issue and we hope that he will join the list of signatories who have already supported the resolution before the official voting,” Chugoshvili added.

Vice-Parliament Speaker from the European Georgian opposition, Sergei Kapanadze, who also participated in the meeting,  highlighted the importance of the resolution and stated that the resolution both reiterates the US support to Georgia’s sovereignty and territorial integrity and condemns Russia’s occupation of Georgian territory.
