In the pursuit of our goal to secure a European future for Georgia, we stand in opposition to the adoption of the "Law On Transparency of Foreign Influence" . We firmly believe that our generation's paramount duty is to secure Georgia's position within Europe, viewing it as a sacred obligation to our nation's future", - the statement reads.
