Whether Georgia will lose the chance to join the European Union in case of the adoption of the law "On transparency of foreign influence" will be decided as a result of consultations with the European Union states, said the Spokesperson of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Germany, Sebastian Fischer.
"Last year, as a result of protesting this draft law by tens of thousands of representatives of Georgian civil society, it was removed from the agenda. Freedom of the press and media is the basis of any democracy and an important prerequisite for EU membership.
Georgia received the status of a candidate for EU membership at the end of last year and a historic chance to join, and they know about it," said the Spokesperson of the German Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Asked whether Georgia will lose this chance if the law is adopted, Fisher said that it will be decided after consultations with EU member states.
