Kristenn Einarsson, Chair of the IPA’s Freedom to Publish Committee: The IPA’s Freedom to Publish Committee notes that the current political situation in Georgia is dangerous and volatile. We understand that Georgian writers and publishers are very concerned that their rights to freedom of expression and freedom to publish may be threatened. The Freedom to Publish Committee stands ready to support our Georgian colleagues should the situation deteriorate.
