When on one side of the scale lies simplified travel, and on the other side lies the country's independence, sovereignty, and freedom from being dictated, this is an attempt at blackmail - no matter how much they blackmail us, they will always fail! - Georgian Dream MP Archil Gorduladze said in response to a question of whether he expects visa-free travel with the EU to be suspended or canceled.

Gorduladze also says that the Georgian Dream government is fulfilling its obligations and "will do everything with firmness and dignity that is in the interest of the Georgian people."

"The Georgian Dream government was able to achieve visa liberalization for Georgia. We are doing everything to ensure that the commitments to the EU are fulfilled in a meticulous manner. For this, there is a deep and comprehensive agreement with the European Union, the Association Agreement, which spells out a number of directives, which should bring Georgian legislation closer. Work in this regard is ongoing daily - be it in the parliament or in the government.

Each step taken by the Georgian Dream ensures that we fulfill our obligations!

We do not call on anyone to threaten us with something, or blackmail us.

Free movement cannot become the basis for blackmailing the Georgian people,” said Archil Gorduladze.
