European Union foreign policy chief Catherine Ashton on Monday reiterated the European bloc's continued support to Georgia and welcomed the peaceful transfer of power that followed the recent parliamentary elections in the former Soviet Republic, Apsny.ge reported. 

“There should be no selective justice in Georgia,” EU High Representative Catherine Ashton stressed following her meetings with the Georgian President and Prime Minister.

In her discussions in Georgia, Ashton warned against retribution against political rivals and said, “Investigations into past wrongdoings must be, and must be seen to be, impartial, transparent and in compliance with due process.”

The High Representative said she was delighted to be in Georgia so soon after the country’s historic parliamentary election and the first democratic transfer of power since independence.
