US Embassy to Georgia welcomes the ruling Georgian Dream party’s decision to withdraw both draft laws on “foreign influence.”

In its Facebook post, the Embassy said: “The Georgian people have, once again, spoken clearly that the only choice for Georgia is a secure and prosperous European future.”

“We urge the ruling party to officially retract these bills and not pursue further this type of legislation, which is incompatible with Georgian and European values and the protection of fundamental freedoms.

We encourage Georgia’s political leaders to work together in earnest on the reforms urgently needed to obtain the EU candidate status that Georgia’s citizens overwhelmingly desire,” reads the statement.
