Any attempt to prevent the President from paying visits is an anti-constitutional action. Such a statement made today MP from Lelo, Salome Samadashvili.

“Today, the only chance for Georgia to get candidate status is for the European Union to make a political decision and grant candidate status to our country under conditions of unfulfilled obligations.

Therefore, the lobbying of the President and any representative of the state for this political decision is of decisive importance from the point of view of granting the status. Therefore, any attempt to prevent the President from carrying out the mentioned visits is an anti-constitutional action, because our Constitution clearly states that Georgia should become a member state of the European Union.

As for the motivation of Georgian Dream, it has a task from its own rulers, from Moscow, that our country should not get the status. However, they may not be able to fulfill this task and the EU may decide to grant the status to the country due to geopolitical considerations”, - said Salome Samadashvili.
