The compensations pay off is a responsibility of Georgian government for the citizens repressed during the Soviet Empire. The decision was delivered by ECtHR.
"The European Court satisfied one more pleading against the Georgian government. The case was about the compensations pay off for the citizens repressed during the Soviet period. This compensation now is to be paid by the present Georgian authorities. The European Court of Human Rights considered that it does not matter who is at the power - Mikhail Saakashvili or Stalin. The repressed people have to get compensations, "- Zaqaria Qutsnashvili said to GHN.
To be noted, Qutsnashvili in connection with this Court decision will hold a press conference tomorrow on July 27. He will talk in details about the taken decision.
