Release Dr. Vazha Gaprindashvili !

Georgian people does not recognize as legitimate the de facto authorities in the occupied regions, 22% Georgia is occupied by Russian troops. We, Thomas Jefferson Research Center, as part of the Georgian NGO society do not recognize as legitimate today's sentencing of Dr. Vazha Gaprindashivili for 1 year and 9 month. We again call on the de facto authorities, and those in the Russian Federation who have influence on them, to allow for the immediate release of Dr. Gaprindashvili.
