We hope to see a change in direction strategic direction for the Georgian government, - said Michael Carpenter, Senior Director for Europe at U.S. National Security Council.

“Frankly, when we see harassment of civil society when we see laws being passed, that limit the space for fundamental freedoms in Georgia that's not compatible with the values that undergird the NATO alliance, nor, frankly, do we think it's compatible with your Atlantic integration writ large, including the EU".

"It's clear that over the course of the last few months, sadly, the Georgian Government has moved in the wrong direction, in terms of its your Atlantic integration prospects. We have long supported Georgia sovereignty, territorial integrity within its internationally recognized borders, we have participated in upwards of 60 rounds of the Geneva international discussions to support Georgia. So it is with with some concern and sadness, frankly, that we see this move in the other direction.

So we hope to see a change in direction strategic direction for the Georgian government," says Michael Carpenter, whose statement has been posted by journalist Alex Raufoglu on X.
