Breakdown of Georgias EU talks brings people to the streets

Georgia’s dreams of EU membership were put on hold after the new government suspended negotiations for four years.

Here are the highlights of the video:

  • Prime Minister of Georgia Irakli Kobakhidze said on Thursday that Georgia will suspend EU membership negotiations until 2028.
  • The announcement sparked widespread opposition protests, which were quelled by force in the country’s capital, Tbilisi.
  • Three police officers were injured during the protests – there is no information about the protesters’ injuries.
  • It is written in the Constitution of Georgia that the country should strive to become a member of the EU. This goal seems to be flying further and further into the future.
