EU Criticizes Georgian Government‘s Actions
The European Union has strongly criticized the Georgian government for its recent actions. In a statement made on January 15, the EU expressed concern over Georgia’s adoption of laws that go against European values.
These laws have caused unrest among peaceful protesters and media representatives in Georgia. The EU is demanding that the authorities stop using force and hold people accountable for any acts of violence.
The EU is worried about Georgia’s decline in democratic progress. It wants the country to respect fundamental rights, such as freedom of speech and assembly, and protect its vibrant civil society.
The EU has taken steps to address these issues. It has suspended aid that directly benefits the government, and it is considering suspending visa-free travel for Georgian officials.
The EU is urging Georgia’s government to return to democratic reforms that align with European values. This includes investigating electoral irregularities and addressing allegations of election fraud.
The EU also wants Georgia to reform its justice system and tackle corruption and organized crime. It is calling on the government to take concrete actions against oligarchs who have too much influence in politics.
The EU remains committed to peaceful conflict resolution and supports Georgia’s sovereignty, independence, and territorial integrity.
