EU Speaks Out Against Georgia‘s Democratic Backsliding
The European Union has spoken out against the situation in Georgia. The country’s government has been accused of suppressing freedom and democracy.
According to Anitta Hipper, a spokesperson for the European Commission, the EU is not seeing positive developments in Georgia. She said that the latest accusations against the EU’s ambassador are unjustified.
The EU supports its ambassador and condemns the intimidation tactics used by the Georgian government. The commission has taken steps to show its support, including reducing contact with the government and freezing financial aid.
Instead, the money will go to civil society groups in Georgia. This is meant to help those who fight for democratic values. The EU wants people in Georgia to know that it stands with them.
