Let us recall that on November 28, Georgia was engulfed by a new wave of protests. People took to the streets in disagreement with the decision of the ruling party "Georgian Dream - Democratic Georgia".

The country's Prime Minister Irakli Kobakhidze stated that Georgia will not raise the issue of joining the European Union until 2028.

As noted in the UK, they were unpleasantly surprised by the methods used by the Georgian authorities to combat protesters. Therefore, interaction with the Georgian authorities will be limited until the country decides to once again take a course towards cooperation with the EU.
