In the draft resolution, after paragraph 9, insert the following paragraph:
"In addition to the observations expressed with regards to Georgia in Resolution 2015 (2014) on the functioning of democratic institutions in Georgia and Resolution 1920 (2013) on the state of media freedom in Europe, the Assembly notes with concern the controversial changes in media ownership following the 2012 parliamentary elections, threatening public declarations by the government representatives targeting TV Rustavi2 and the recent adoption of legislation aimed at curbing the financial independence of private broadcasters and thus potentially influencing their editorial independence."
