People gather in Kutaisi in support of EU integration

Civic activists, citizens and representatives of opposition parties in Kutaisi, western Georgia held a peaceful rally in support of European integration.

They formed a human chain, saying “Georgia must join the European family. The country has a six-month to meet the conditions.”

On June 17, European Commission published a recommendation to greenlight EU candidate status for Ukraine and Moldova, while Georgia should meet certain conditions first. Until then, it benefits from a ‘European perspective.’

On June 23-24, the Georgian government will receive a response from the European Council to its application for EU membership, which the country has completed together with Ukraine and Moldova.
