"Peter Fischer’s presence in our country no longer made any sense. He was the first German ambassador to damage Georgian-German relations. I am confident that these relations will be restored very soon; the key is to appoint a dignified person as Germany’s ambassador in the future," said Georgian Prime Minister Irakli Kobakhidze in a statement to journalists.

According to him, the German government made a pragmatic decision regarding the recall of Ambassador Peter Fischer.

"In reality, it is very good that the German government made a pragmatic decision regarding Mr. Fischer’s recall. His presence in our country no longer made any sense. He was the first German ambassador to damage Georgian-German relations. Prior to that, these relations were developing progressively, with very positive dynamics, but under Fischer’s tenure, significant damage was done to these relations. However, these relations are so strong that I am confident they will be restored very soon. The key is to appoint a dignified person as Germany’s ambassador in the future," Kobakhidze stated.

For reference, Germany recalled its ambassador from Georgia for consultations on October 19.
