Kakha Kaladze - The first thing that should happen is to summon the EU ambassador, specific questions should be asked - we need friends, not masters

The first thing that should happen is to summon the EU ambassador, to ask specific questions - we need friends, not bosses. Let them wave their fingers at whom they had waved, wherever it worked, - this is how the mayor of the capital, Kakha Kaladze, responds to the statements of the EU ambassador to Georgia, Pawel Herczynski.

"The statement we heard was very disturbing. It was about war, civil strife. It is very difficult to hear all this.

If until now, disguised and packaged, some people have been calling for us to get involved in the war, now they have come out directly and spoken about civil strife and war.

They have threatened Georgians, the Georgian state.

The first thing that should happen is to summon the ambassador, specific questions should be asked.

Georgia has not deviated, we are a democratic, sovereign country. We need friends, not masters. Let them wave their fingers at whom they had waved, wherever it worked. It will not work with us. We serve the country's interests with our policies," Kaladze notes.

The EU Ambassador to Georgia, who opened the documentary photo exhibition “Georgia in Focus” in Brussels at the European External Action Service, noted that Georgia is no longer on the right trajectory.

According to the ambassador, “the government has chosen an alternative, authoritarian model.”
