Tbilisi, 7 February 2026

We, the undersigned citizens of Georgia, representatives of various professions, guided by the constitutional principle of Georgia according to which sovereignty resides in the people and seeking to ensure that this principle is translated into practical reality, have convened to deliberate on the alienation of state-owned lands located in Krtsanisi and Gonio. We have examined the potential risks of this project for Georgia and its citizens, as well as for the international community.

We have come to the conclusion that the project entails significant risks and potential harms:

1. Lack of transparency in the disposal of state property and in the project, including the designation of information of public importance as a “commercial secret” and its non-disclosure on that basis.

2. Economically unjustified disposal of state property.

3. Insufficient study and substantiation of construction risks affecting:

   • The floodplain forests and forest-park ecosystems of Krtsanisi.

   • Avian migration routes and nesting habitats in Gonio, as well as territories designated under the Emerald Network.

4. Failure to identify, document and safeguard burial sites of victims of Soviet-era political repression located within the forest park.

5. Lack of a comprehensive assessment of the potential social impacts associated with migration flows.

6. The risk of inflows and laundering of financial resources of potentially illicit or corrupt origin.
   
   

We call upon our fellow citizens to mobilize support from all available resources to address each aspect of this Resolution.

We demand from the de facto Government of Georgia the full disclosure of all documentation related to the project, strict compliance with all requirements established by law, including environmental impact assessment procedures, as well as the provision of comprehensive and clear written explanations to the broader public regarding all the risks and potential harms outlined above.

We call upon all legal and natural persons involved in this project to cease all work and suspend the implementation of the project until Georgian citizens are objectively and adequately informed and a broad public consensus is achieved.

We hereby establish a working group, composed on voluntary and professional principles in accordance with the annex, and we will seek support for its activities. The mandate of the group is to ensure proper information of the population of Georgia and the international community regarding the project and its associated risks, as well as to initiate relevant legal procedures.
