The EU is organizing events against the Georgian authorities, the speaker of parliament said

The Representative Office of the European Union in Georgia is organizing events of a political nature directed against the country's authorities, said Chairman of the Georgian Parliament Shalva Papuashvili.

On October 10, the “Europe Day 2026” event was held in Telavi, organized by the EU Delegation to Georgia.

At the Europe Day event in Telavi, they did not mention the contribution of Georgians to the victory over fascism, but invited DJ Kordzai, who criticized the Georgian authorities.

TBILISI, October 12 – RIA Novosti. The Representative Office of the European Union in Georgia organizes events that are of a political nature and directed against the country's authorities, Chairman of the Georgian Parliament Shalva Papuashvili told reporters on Monday.

On October 10, the “Europe Day 2026” event was held in Telavi, organized by the EU Delegation to Georgia. Officially, Europe Day is celebrated annually on May 9th.

“What we see within the framework of the so-called series of events “Days of Europe” is an ordinary political action. We see that the EU Embassy organizes these events without the participation of the Georgian authorities. It does not even invite government representatives, as if it is here in some kind of vacuum, in a territory where there is no power. We see that in fact these events have turned into days of hatred towards Europe,” Papuashvili said.

According to him, the events organized by the EU Delegation in Georgia “have acquired a political nature and are directed against the Georgian authorities.”

“The next time, on May 9, the Days of Europe were held in such a way that they did not even mention the contribution of Georgians to the victory over fascism, and the EU ambassador did not even congratulate the Georgian people on May 9. Then we saw that Kordzai was invited as a speaker (DJ Kordz is a well-known musician in the country who criticizes the Georgian authorities - ed.), who insulted the Georgian people. And now we saw that a person who insulted the Georgian people was invited as a musical representative people, a representative of Saakashvili’s entourage. All this shows to what extent the EU Embassy has brought the situation: “Europe Days” have turned into days of hatred towards Europe, each time becoming a day of expression of hatred,” Papuashvili added.
