Today is a historic day for Georgia - I am signing the application for EU membership on behalf of the country. Such a statement made the Prime Minister, while signing the application for EU membership.

“This is another important step on Georgia’s path to European integration - a stage that turns a new page in our history and continues the efforts of our ancestors, which was aimed at unification in a common European family.

Georgia is a European state. Our country, throughout its long history, has always belonged to the area of ​​European culture and civilization. “Europeanness” is nothing more than a set of values ​​​​that make up Europe. The history of Georgia itself, which is the history of the struggle for freedom, is a proof that these values ​​are in the nature of Georgian people”, - said Irakli Garibashvili.
