When we observe the scale of the setbacks that a particular EU country, and in this case Denmark, has made in terms of human rights, in particular, in terms of ensuring freedom of assembly, it is truly worrying, Georgian Prime Minister Irakli Kobakhidze told journalists.

As Irakli Kobakhidze noted, what we have seen in Denmark is “more than worrying.”

"When we observe the scale of the setbacks that a particular EU country, and in this case Denmark, has in terms of human rights, in particular, in terms of ensuring freedom of assembly, it is truly worrying. No one could have imagined this about 10-20 years ago. We need to respond appropriately to this. Such processes should not be overlooked and we should also focus the public's attention on such processes in order for the public to draw the right conclusions about the direction in which processes are developing across Europe, based on the policies of the European bureaucracy," said Irakli Kobakhidze.

For information, pro-Palestinian activists in Denmark held a protest rally, the participants of which protested against the transportation of military cargo intended for Israel and the possible participation of the Maersk company in these processes. According to them, there is a great risk that weapons will be used in the Gaza Strip.

According to local media, on May 13, when pro-Palestinian activists blocked the headquarters of shipping giant Maersk in Copenhagen, Danish police used batons and trained dogs against the demonstrators to disperse the protest.
