Kobakhidze warns diplomats on unlawful support

Georgia’s Prime Minister Irakli Kobakhidze has called on the European Union’s (EU) ambassador to the country to distance themselves from the recent events on the streets of Tbilisi and to condemn them unequivocally.

Kobakhidze stressed that the ambassador bears a particular responsibility against the backdrop of statements supporting attempts to overthrow the constitutional order. He said:

"The EU ambassador to Georgia has a special responsibility to come forward, express their disapproval, distance themselves from these events, and unequivocally condemn everything happening on the streets of Tbilisi. Certain foreign individuals have directly supported attempts to overturn the constitutional order. In light of this, the ambassador bears direct responsibility in their response."

The Prime Minister also emphasised that foreign agents and diplomats must operate within proper frameworks and must not indirectly support any unlawful or violent actions. According to Kobakhidze, this matter is of critical importance for Georgia’s sovereignty and public stability.
