The position of the new German ambassador shows that she will be a principled and strong ambassador - I want to see a peaceful, democratic change of this regime soon, because ambassadors should not have to focus on tense relations in their first statement, - Grigol Gegelia, one of the leaders of the Lelo-Strong Georgia movement, stated while responding to the comment of the German ambassador to Georgia, who noted that "the existing tension is worsening the relations of Germany and the European Union with Georgia."

According to him, in order for the regime to have any type of German support, it will be necessary to start taking the right political steps.

“The position of the new German ambassador shows that she will be a principled and strong ambassador. She is already talking about the tension that exists between Georgia and Germany, which indicates that she is well aware of all the details of the political situation that unfortunately is unfolding in Georgia.

We hear once again that Germany supports Georgia, the Georgian people, and the European path we have chosen.

In order for the regime to have any kind of German support, it will be necessary to start taking the right political steps. Instead of anti-European hysteria and paranoia, to take responsibility for the steps and rhetoric that have caused the country to lose all its major foreign partners.

I want to wish the ambassador success and I want to see a peaceful, democratic change of this regime soon, because ambassadors should not have to focus on tense relations in their first statement,” Gegelia noted.

For information, Barbara Foss has been appointed as the new German Ambassador to Georgia.

“Nevertheless, Germany’s active support for the country’s democratic and pro-European course remains unwaveringly strong,” says Barbara Foss.
