I spoke to PM Gakharia about the importance of free, fair and transparent elections

"I spoke to Prime Minister Giorgi Gakharia about the importance of holding free, fair and transparent elections," US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo wrote on Twitter.

"Spoke with Prime Minister @GakhariaGiorgi today on the importance of holding free, fair, and transparent elections in Georgia this October. We will always support Georgia’s sovereignty in the face of Russian occupation." - he Twitted.

It should be noted that while the US Secretary of State is focusing on the 2020 parliamentary elections, the Georgian government's statement focused on the fight against the pandemic. The telephone conversation between Mike Pompeo and Giorgi Gakharia took place on July 27.

Recall, Mike Pompeo also said on July 24 that the United States will never tolerate an attack by Russia on the sovereignty of Georgia and Ukraine.
