Human Rights Center Requests Establishment of International Mission to Assess Human Rights Violation in Georgia during Conflict

The Human Rights Center attempted to gain the attention of international organizations and Western countries about the looming escalation of the violence and military operations in Georgia in recent years, which included widespread human rights violations, militarization of the country, a campaign of war propaganda, violation of rule of law, and the demonstrated sense of total impunity and malfeasance and neglect on the side of civil institutions. Collectively such a set of factors have created fertile ground for the unpredictable situation that now faces Georgia. Such a situation can only further benefit our enemies.

On April 19 Georgian-Abkhazian website and a hard copy newspaper was presented at the gallery “Kopala” as PR for the peace and resolution initiative.  Although only a short time has passed since the presentation, it has already caused some serious outcome as the first reactions are being voiced.

The Human Rights Center has requested that the broadcasting of musical artist Kabu’s newest video be suspended.  The HRIDC considers several phrases in the song, including “We will defeat the Abkhaz people” and “We will defeat the Russians,” as an attempt to encourage war and contradicts the Georgian Constitution.

On September 21, Word Demonstration started in Gurjaani and finished in Zugidi on September 27. The aim of the demonstration was to collect messages to Abkhaz people throughout Georgia. The question “What Would You Tell Abkhaz People Fifteen Years later?” was asked by Human Rights Center (HRIDC) in five regions of Georgia. The demonstration showed that Georgian people have much to tell their Abkhaz brothers and all their messages are almost similar.
