“When even the U.S. Secretary of State is forced to publicly tell Brussels to stop speaking to other countries in a tone of reprimand, it is clear that Brussels has already gone too far into playing the role of a fake moralist,” wrote the Speaker of the Parliament of Georgia, Shalva Papuashvili.

As he noted, this is exactly what Georgia has been saying as well.

“When even the U.S. Secretary of State is forced to publicly tell Brussels to stop speaking to other countries in a tone of reprimand, it is clear that Brussels has already gone too deep into the role of a false moralist.

This is our message too!” wrote Papuashvili.

With this statement, the Speaker of Parliament was responding to a remark made by U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio following the meeting of G7 foreign ministers.

Specifically, Rubio noted that during the meeting, no one had discussed with him the legality of U.S. strikes on boats in the Caribbean.

“I don’t think the European Union has the right to define what international law is. Nor can they determine how the United States should defend its national security. In our hemisphere, organized criminal narco-terrorists are attacking the United States, and the President is responding in order to protect our country,” said Marco Rubio.
