The EU’s clear and firm stance will not only empower these young people, but also prove that Europe stands by those who fight for EU values, even at great personal risk – we appeal to you, show these brave people that the EU hears their voices and strongly supports their struggle! – Giorgi Gakharia, the leader of the ‘Gakharia for Georgia’ party, wrote on social media, where he addressed the EU.
Gakharia noted that the brave Georgian youth are fighting on the streets of Georgia for the European future they believe in, and are enduring the regime’s violent crackdown.
“These young people are risking everything for European values – for freedom, democracy and dignity. Yet they feel that their struggle is being met with silence.
“For these young people, the EU is not just an idea. It is their salvation – their hope for a better, free and democratic future.
“Your voice is more important now than ever. A clear and firm position from the EU will not only empower these young people, but also prove that Europe stands by those who fight for the values of the EU, even at great personal risk.”
We appeal to you to show these brave people that the EU hears their voice and firmly supports their struggle! – Gakharia wrote on Facebook.
