Most notable proposition which unfortunately didn't went through was the joint motion of European Free Alliance/The Greens led by former 1968 French youth leader Mr. Daniel Cohn-Bendit who proposed:

"21. Calls for the development of a privileged partnership with both country-region Georgia country-region and country-region Ukraine "

and
And nationalist UEN Group who

"23. Calls on the International Olympic Committee to announce a fresh competition to decide which country should host the Winter Olympic Games 2014, as organising the Games in an undemocratic country could lead to a repetition of the situation in 1980 when the Olympic Games in Moscow were boycotted;"

Unforchunately those motions were rejected but we got very important point at the final version saying

"28. Recalls that at the Bucharest Summit on 3 April 2008 NATO agreed that Georgia would become a member of the Alliance"

Basically all parts of political spectre from left to right supported Georgia, with a small exception. Resulted of votes are available at the European parliament site at item5
