The president of Georgia: “Accelerate our entry into Europe, before Moscow returns to take an interest in us”

«The democratic future is Europe. This is why our place is within the Union. Of course, we are aware of the great responsibility of having asked for an acceleration of the process: we must speed up internal reforms and overcome every obstacle as soon as possible. On the other hand, our rapprochement with Europe, to which we have belonged culturally for centuries, goes hand in hand with what is happening in Ukraine. Let’s not turn around: the security issue concerns the whole region ».
