One thing we can say: Signs of a crisis have appeared on the basis of these elections, this is a democratic crisis, – Prime Minister Irakli Kobakhidze said, evaluating the elections of the European Parliament.
The head of the government noted that Georgia’s foreign policy priority is integration into the European Union, therefore the government is paying special attention to the processes happening in the EU.
“In reality, there will be some changes, but the development of events will continue as it was before. One can say that some signs of a crisis have appeared on the basis of these elections, which is a democratic crisis. I am convinced that Europe will overcome this crisis in the medium term. It is in everyone’s interest.
“Our foreign policy priority is integration into the European Union, therefore we are paying special attention to the processes in the European Union. Of course, it is in everyone’s interest to make the political processes in the European Union as healthy as possible”, said Kobakhidze.
As a result of the April 6-9 elections, the European People’s Party and the Social Democrats remain the dominant forces in the European Parliament. The representation of the far-right has slightly increased and the representation of liberals and greens has decreased.
