Death of the Georgian citizen Archil Tatunashvili in South Ossetia

Green Co-President of the Euronest Parliamentary Assembly Rebecca Harms is commenting on the recent incidents in South Ossetia, Georgia:


"The tragic death of the Georgian citizen Archil Tatunashvili in South Ossetia is of great concern and my thoughts go out to his family and friends. De facto authorities in Tskhinvali must respect the wishes and grieve of the family and the dignity of the deceased. They must transfer his body to Georgia administered territories immediately. They must also urgently allow the two Georgian citizens, which have been released from detention, to leave the non-government controlled territories.

I highly welcome the European Union's readiness to help and support investigations into this case. The EU is a true partner of Georgia and supports peace building and conflict resolution as well as its sovereignty and territorial integrity of Georgia within its internationally recognised borders."
