MP Volski: Economic growth analysis shows Georgia strengthened its budget and maintained stability
“Brussels actually wants to pursue its policies at the expense of the interests of Moldova, Ukraine and other EU countries. This is so evident that it has caused serious political upheaval against the incumbent governments in certain countries,” Gia Volski, a member of the parliamentary majority, said.
Volski commented on a statement by Georgian Parliament Speaker Shalva Papuashvili regarding the forecast for GDP growth in 2026.
“If we take a closer look at France, Germany and various other countries, and consider where we stand, these indicators are driven by the fact that we have firmly upheld our position on certain issues. This is why they want to invest in our country. This is also reflected in the World Bank’s indicators, including those concerning the justice system, where Georgia performs significantly better than many EU member states.
Therefore, this analysis of economic growth reveals a great deal. It is important not only because Georgia has managed to strengthen its budget, social welfare package and other areas on the basis of this economic growth, but also because Georgia has maintained stability. This is not reflected solely in economic growth figures. The underlying reasons are what Shalva Papuashvili has assessed absolutely correctly as an independent policy that takes into account the interests of our country’s society,” Volski noted.
Georgian Parliament Speaker Shalva Papuashvili published the 2026 GDP growth forecast on social media. According to Papuashvili, Georgia is not merely outpacing all EU member and candidate countries in terms of economic growth, but doing so several times over.
