The US State Department's Human Rights Report deals with problems, not political parties or individuals, US Ambassador to Georgia Kelly Degnan told the reporters.
"The US has been reporting on human rights for decades. They are about problems, not political parties or personalities. Their material is obtained from a range of reliable sources, and we verify and check them to ensure that the information in the report is reliable.
These reports are important and I would encourage people to read the previous reports as they chronicle the areas where progress was needed but also often highlight areas where progress has actually been made.
Our ultimate goal with human rights reports is to better inform the efforts of Georgians to strengthen their democracy and protect the human rights of all citizens. And we hope that the annual report on human rights will be perceived as an important tool for this purpose," said Degnan.
