European Parliament to vote on Georgia resolution next week

The European Parliament is set to vote on a resolution concerning Georgia on February 13, according to Rikard Jozwiak, editor of the European Bureau of Radio Liberty. A key point of discussion in the resolution is how the European Parliament will refer to Mikheil Kavelashvili, who was elected as the president of Georgia by the country’s parliament late last year.

Jozwiak also noted that, for the first time, Georgia is not included on the agenda of the EU foreign ministers’ meeting scheduled for February 24.

The vote will come amid ongoing protests in Georgia against the Government’s decision in November 2024 to halt EU integration until 2028. Demonstrators, who also claim the ruling Georgian Dream party had rigged the general election in October 2024, are demanding the rerun.
