“We continue to support the Georgian people's Euro Atlantic aspirations, but we have seen that the government of Georgia take a different turn, a different path. We've seen the government of Georgia pass laws that move Georgia away from its democratic trajectory. You know how the law they passed could affect civil society and enable government crack down on legitimate democratic rights.
And so it is the Georgian government's actions that have fundamentally altered its relationship with the United States, but not just with the United States, but with other countries in Europe as well”, he said.
