First Vice Speaker Volski: Georgia’s role in the global connectivity project is crucial, yet Brussels’ vision of who should govern this territory remains a problem

“Georgia’s participation in the global connectivity project is exceptionally important, but Brussels’ vision regarding who should govern this strategically vital territory remains problematic,” First Deputy Speaker of Parliament Gia Volski has said.

According to Volski, Brussels believes a puppet government should govern the country.

“Inviting Georgia to the Connectivity Forum as a low-ranking guest is highly problematic, because there is nothing minor about our role in the Middle Corridor and regional connectivity. Georgia is, has been, and will remain a pivotal territory. However, some would rather have a puppet government in charge here than Georgian Dream, which defends national interests and pushes back hard against serious attacks.

Georgia’s participation in the global connectivity project is exceptionally important, yet the sticking point remains Brussels’ view on who should govern this crucial territory. In their view, it ought to be ruled by a puppet government willing to stand on one leg to carry out any order,” Volski said.
