**Prime Minister Criticizes EU Ambassador’s Meeting with Opposition Leader**
The Prime Minister of Georgia, Irakli Kobakhidze, has spoken out against a recent meeting between the European Union ambassador and opposition leader Davit Kirtadze. This is an unusual event in itself, says the Prime Minister.
Kobakhidze believes that the meeting shows support for hatred, which he finds disturbing. He thinks the EU ambassador should confirm whether the EU wants to change the government of Georgia and bring back a former ruling party called the “National Movement”.
**EU’s Role in Georgian Politics**
The opposition has been saying that the EU’s goal is to replace the current government with the “National Movement”. Kobakhidze finds this claim worrying. He thinks it would be good for journalists to ask the EU ambassador if they want regime change and the return of the “National Movement” to power.
**Background on the National Movement**
Kobakhidze accused the “National Movement” of serious crimes, including torturing and killing people, hijacking businesses and TV stations, and dragging Georgia into war. He believes that if the EU wants to bring them back to power, it would be a disaster for Georgia.
