If Georgia receives the status of an EU candidate with unjust commitments, the country should refuse it. Such a statement made today Dimitri Khundadze from the Georgian Dream ruling party.

“Even though we are aware of the anti-state efforts of the Georgian opposition in Europe, yesterday’s European Parliament resolution went beyond all bounds. It was an open insult to the Georgian people.

We have never seen such an unjust Europe during Georgia’s independence. We can’t give up dignity in order to get the status! Before the creation of the EU, Georgia made a major contribution to the formation of Europe.

The EU Constitution clearly states that this union must be based on the principle of equality. And what did we see yesterday? We saw arrogant EU countries insulting one of the oldest civilized states of the European family.

Yesterday’s resolution almost destroyed the European choice of the Georgian people.

This is a dangerous political game. Today’s global processes have made even clearer the fact that EU membership is not only a perspective of Georgia’s future, it is also a perspective of Europe itself.

As for the forthcoming decision of the EU, if Georgia receives the status of an EU candidate with unjust commitments like the unjust allegations reflected in the resolution, then the country should give a fair refusal in response”, - said the MP.
