In addition, the EP stated that the process should be monitored by representatives of the international community.

Only in this way, according to members of the European Parliament, will “fair and transparent” elections be held in Georgia.

The deputies also approved the EU's plans to send a mission to Tbilisi to assess the situation in the republic.

For reference

The European Parliament is the legislative and representative body of the EU, directly elected by the citizens of the EU member states.
