Georgian Parliament Vice Speaker Nino Tsilosani commented on the US and Israeli attack on Iran, describing the situation in the Middle East as "extremely grave." She emphasized that Tbilisi expresses condolences over the civilian casualties in both countries.
"Whether it's Iran or Israel, we offer our condolences where civilians have been killed. There are also significant infrastructure losses. The scale of military intervention is extremely large. Naturally, we support de-escalation of this situation through diplomatic channels, as war and military confrontation are not an option. We call on all involved states to make maximum use of diplomatic mechanisms," the Vice Speaker stated.
Commenting on the Georgian government's position, the politician noted that she joins those who have already expressed their condolences.
"The government has expressed its condolences to all countries involved in the military escalation, as well as to all those killed, both government officials and civilians. I, of course, join these condolences," Tsilosani stated.
Responding to the question: "If the US kills a murderer, is that grounds for condolences?" the deputy speaker emphasized that, legally, such actions are not condoned.
"You don't even know how the principles of human rights and democracy work. 'Killer of a murderer' is a specific legal definition. I won't go into broader terms. Killing a murderer is not something that is welcomed in the legislation of any country. Regarding condolences, please read the government's statement, which expresses condolences in connection with all these grave events," Tsilosani stated.
