“The hate and contempt campaigns are being conducted in Georgia with external funding. The government will use all legal means to prevent such efforts from succeeding,” Georgian Prime Minister Irakli Kobakhidze stated.

“A campaign of hate and contempt is underway in Georgia, and this phenomenon is not unique to our country. Similar externally funded campaigns are taking place in other nations as well, including Hungary. We are closely monitoring these developments and cannot allow such efforts to be successfully planned or carried out.

In Georgia, these campaigns are clearly supported by foreign funding, and we will confront them using all legal means. Hatred and contempt hinder the country’s progress, and we have every right—within the bounds of the law—to resist these artificially imposed narratives. There should be no place for such destructive sentiments in Georgian society,” he added.

The Prime Minister also called on European ambassadors to refrain from inciting hatred and contempt in Georgia.

“Georgian society needs calm and a healthy attitude toward one another. Unfortunately, we are witnessing troubling actions from the European bureaucracy, with some ambassadors also involved. This is very harmful. We urge everyone, including European ambassadors, to stop fueling division—this is the last thing our society needs,” Kobakhidze stated.
