“Recent developments in Georgia are deeply disappointing in terms of the European approach,” stated Germany’s Minister of State for Europe Gunther Krichbaum.

He emphasised that the actions taken by the Georgian government are unacceptable, and that all options are currently under consideration.

“Of course, all options are on the table. The recent events in Georgia are very disheartening from a European perspective. We stand with the citizens and support them, but the actions of the government are unacceptable. As I mentioned, we are exploring all possible responses,” Krichbaum added.
