The President of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, expressed concern about the situation in Tbilisi after the adoption of the scandalous law on “foreign agents” and attempts to disperse protests by security forces. This is stated in the Twitter (X) of the President of the European Commission.
I am following the situation in Georgia with great concern and condemn the violence on the streets of Tbilisi.

The Georgian people want a European future for their country.
Georgia is at a crossroads. It should stay the course on the road to Europe.
Von der Leyen condemned the violence on the streets of Tbilisi and expressed support for the Georgian people in their quest for a “European future.”
She emphasized the importance for Georgia to stay on course on its way to Europe, calling the country “at a crossroads.”
Earlier, we reported that security forces in Georgia have once again began to disperse protests against the “Russian law” using rubber bullets.
It was also reported that the President of Georgia Salome Zurabishvili expressed her support for the protesters in the center of Tbilisi. She called for peaceful actions and not to storm the parliament building.
