European Union firmly rejects and condemns the disinformation and baseless accusations by the Georgian government regarding the EU's role in Georgia — this is stated in a declaration by Anuare El Anouar, Spokesperson for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy of the European Union.
The statement says that undermining EU-Georgia relations through Russian-style conspiracy theories and divisive narratives only serves those who oppose Georgia’s democratic and European path.
According to the statement, the European Union strongly condemns the personal attacks against the EU Ambassador to Georgia, Paweł Herczyński, and declares that the Ambassador has the full trust and support of the European Union.
“The European Union firmly rejects and condemns the disinformation and unfounded accusations by the Georgian government regarding the EU's role in Georgia.
Recent statements spreading false information — as if the EU is trying to destabilize Georgia, drag it into war, or impose so-called ‘non-traditional values’ — represent a deliberate attempt to mislead the public.
Undermining EU-Georgia relations with Russian-style conspiracy theories and divisive narratives benefits only those who oppose Georgia's democratic and European path.
We strongly condemn the personal attacks against the EU Ambassador in Georgia [Paweł Herczyński]. The Ambassador plays a vital role in strengthening EU-Georgia relations. He has the full trust and support of the European Union.
We call on all political forces in Georgia to refrain from spreading disinformation, to avoid provocative personal attacks, and to work toward a European future for their people.
The European Union remains a consistent and reliable partner of Georgia. The EU once again reaffirms its unwavering support for Georgia’s territorial integrity and reiterates its steadfast solidarity with the Georgian people and its readiness to continue supporting them on their path toward a European future,”
— the statement reads.
