Speaker of the Parliament of Georgia, Shalva Papuashvilipublished this Thursday Family Values and Minors Protection Act Despite the president’s criticism, Salome Zurabishvili, and opposition political parties, even acknowledging that “this may provoke criticism from some international partners.”
Zurabishvili refused to approve the controversial reform on Tuesday. which prohibits, among other things, “propaganda” related to this group, gender reassignment or equal marriageso it matched Papuashvili stamp final signature so that it can take effect soon.
According to the Chairman of Parliament, This law respects the rights of all citizens and does not contradict “tolerance”, which “has always been a defining characteristic of the Georgian population.” However, “we must understand that true tolerance must coexist with mutual respect and not jeopardize civil peace by disrespecting the beliefs and values of others,” he said on social media.
A reform similar to another already in place in Russia, received criticism from human rights organizationsamong them UNwho’s afraid of that the principles of equality, non-discrimination, education, health, freedom of expression may be at riskand also freedom of peaceful assembly and association. Also from the EU, which believes that Georgia is increasingly moving closer to Russia’s views on political and social issues.
Papuashvili this Wednesday insisted that the law has broad social support and indicated that in May about a million people took to the streets to support himwhich he believes is equivalent to a “de facto” referendum, as reported by public television.
I know that the signing of this law may provoke criticism from some international partners, but we Georgians have never allowed ourselves to be carried away by external opinions when we are guided by faith, common sense and devotion to our country, especially now that we see that civilization moving in the wrong direction.
