All four major pro-European parties, including my own, have rejected the election results in Georgia (Natalia Antelava, 28 October). It was not just the United National Movement that challenged the results of rigged elections – most of the opposition, civil society and a significant number of citizens (as evidenced by the recent protest in Tbilisi) consider the elections neither free nor fair.
The US has even requested a full investigation. Importantly, the opposition has been represented by those with connections to the previous government of Mikheil Saakashvili as well as those who were strongly opposed to both the previous and current governments.
