We are going to use all the tools at our disposal, including rolling out new sanctions. Such a statement made the Spokesperson of the US Department of State.

“I’m not going to talk about any potential sanctions that we will impose on Georgian officials or individuals inside the country of Georgia. We have made clear that we have deep concern with the change in direction that the Government of Georgia has taken.

You saw a statement from the Secretary last week, where he made clear that we are going to use all the tools at our disposal to hold Georgia accountable for those steps, including rolling out new sanctions. As to what those are and who they will target, you’re going to have to wait until we announce them”, - said Matthew Miller.
