Caucasia, Barrier, 10 March
Zviad Dzidziguri, Georgian Dream: “I believe that Georgia should not be, so to say “free passage”. What happened is that a little girl, Mariam…I do not remember her surname, the girl was murdered in Adjara by the tourist [The accused is the citizen of Iran], he did not even have three dollars in his pocket…to open doors for everyone…whoever wishes to enter and go, it is not right…
I do not think that it was a right decision, when Saakashvili granted Georgian citizenship to more than three thousand people during the last months, what type of people were they?; where from?; what language did they speak?; did they know what was the country that they became citizens of?”
