EU Commissioner for Enlargement Marta Kos today described the latest developments in Georgia as “alarming”.
In a post on X, she wrote that legal amendments proposed by the Georgian Dream would “further undermine citizens’ rights to freedom of expression and assembly”.
“We call on Georgian authorities to reverse course and return to Georgia’s EU path, respecting the will of Georgian citizens,” Marta Kos said.
Earlier, on 2 February, EU High Representative Kaja Kallas condemned the brutal crackdown on peaceful protesters, journalists, and politicians in Tbilisi, calling it “unacceptable”.
“Georgia falls short of any expectation from a candidate country,” Kallas wrote on X. “The EU stands with the people of Georgia in their fight for freedom and democracy.”
