The EU will work with any government to be elected after the October 26 elections - Pawel Herczynski

I once again call on all Georgians to go and vote, upcoming elections will be absolutely essential in determining the future of your country, said the EU Ambassador to Georgia. As Pawel Herczynski remarked, the EU will work with any government to be elected after the October 26 elections to “restart Georgia’s path towards EU membership.”

“With a breaking heart, I have to again tell you that 27 European leaders decided in June, so several months ago, to stop Georgia’s EU accession process in reaction to several difficult and troublesome developments that have happened here. I sincerely hope that after the elections, whoever wins the elections, we will very swiftly work together with the newly elected government of Georgia in order to restart Georgia’s accession process. Unfortunately, in the last several months, a lot of time has been wasted. The accession process has been stopped. This is happening in the context of other countries, including Ukraine and Moldova, going fast forward on the EU integration path. We really need to catch up and everything depends on the vote on the 26th of October.

So again, I urge every Georgian citizen eligible to vote to exercise his or her right to go and vote. In the European Union, we have made crystal clear we are ready to work with any government of Georgia to be elected after the 26th of October elections. On our side, we have made it loud and clear. Our doors are open for Georgia. We are waiting for you. Let’s not waste any one more minute, let’s restart Georgia’s path towards EU membership”, - said Pawel Herczynski.
