Washington, DC,March 23, 2014
Marie Harf, Deputy Department Spokesperson, Office of the Spokesperson:
The United States is concerned by the decision of Georgian authorities
to call former President Saakashvili for questioning in multiple
criminal investigations.
No one is above the law, but launching
multiple simultaneous investigations involving a former President raises
legitimate concerns about political retribution, particularly when
legal and judicial institutions are still fragile.
As discussed at the
highest levels when Prime Minister Garibashvili visited Washington in
February, the United States urges Georgia’s leaders to focus the
nation's energies on the future, a strong economy, continued reform of
the justice sector, and rapid progress on Euro-Atlantic integration. (www.state.gov)
