Most sitting parliamentarians, including Giorgi Khelashvili, Maka Bochorishvili, Levan Karumidze, Givi Mikanadze and Tamar Taliashvili, proposed the draft in support of Ukraine amid conflict with Russia.

In the ongoing tensions, the parliament speaker of Georgia responded that Georgia will be in close touch with its Western allies, adding, “Indeed, we will surely respond by conversations.”

However, MP’s in opposition disagreed with the notion proposed by the government and refused to sign the draft, excluding European Socialists and Citizens party representatives.
