One thing is clear: the door for Georgia to become member of the European Union is open. But if the government continues on the same track, continues doing what they are doing, this door will be closed, said Josep Borrell, the High Representative of the European Union for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy told journalists before the start of the EU Foreign Affairs Council in Luxembourg.

"We are going to discuss the situation in Georgia and one thing is clear: the door for Georgia to become member of the European Union is open. But if the government continues on the same track, continues doing what they are doing, this door will be closed. And the Georgian people will pay the consequences, will suffer the fact that the European perspective will be diminished or even cancelled.

We are talking about serious things. If things continue like this, the door to the European Union will not be open. And today, I [will] present an option paper to the ministers, explaining the different things that we can do in the short and medium term in order to make this not to continue in Georgia.

I also distributed an analysis of all the relationship that we have with Israel and Palestine, in order for ministers to look at and see what they can do in order to put pressure on both sides," said Josep Borrell.

Michał Kobosko - we hope that your government eventually would either choose the European way, the democratic way or would resign seeing the number, the size and scale of the citizens' protests
