The Georgian Parliament is anticipated to discuss the European Commission’s enlargement report. Giorgi Sharashidze, a member of Gakharia for Georgia, has called for the report to be reviewed at the Foreign Relations Committee meeting. The Committee Chair has confirmed readiness to examine the document.

According to For Georgia’s MP Sharashidze, the Foreign Relations Committee should address this matter, which directly concerns Georgia’s commitment to a civilised European path.

“It would be inappropriate for me to attend the Foreign Relations Committee meeting and hear nothing about the European Commission’s report, which is of significant historical importance. I propose that our next meeting be dedicated to the EC’s conclusions on the EU enlargement report.

All critical issues raised in the report must be discussed. This pertains to Georgia’s civilised choice, and I find it unacceptable to participate in a Committee meeting without engaging on this topic. We could invite representatives from the Foreign Affairs Ministry, along with students, experts, and interested stakeholders, to contribute to the discussion. There is societal concern and regret about what is happening and why,” he stated.

Nikoloz Samkharadze, the Committee Chair, suggested that Sharashidze has exercised his right under existing regulations, whether by summoning MFA representatives to the committee meeting or to the plenary session in the form of interpellation.

“The EU report is neither pleasing nor reassuring. However, I must say I am quite astonished. For the first time, the EC report cites facts that simply did not occur. I was particularly struck by an entirely unbelievable statement regarding Ukraine, as if Georgia does not support resolutions in favour of Ukraine, yet we have supported hundreds. I also read about the use of rubber bullets, despite there being no record of their use in 2025, along with many other inaccuracies and misinformation.

Therefore, we should approach the report with a critical perspective from all sides. It would be beneficial to do so, allowing us to voice our opinions. We are ready to discuss it either during the Committee meeting or in the plenary session. The opposition should utilise the leverage at its disposal to the fullest. If they wish, they can do so within the framework of regulations. We are ready to invite any government representatives with whom they want to hold discussions or debates,” Samkharadze concluded.
