"The first reading of the law on foreign agents passed by the Georgian parliament raises serious questions about the prospects of democracy in Georgia. We call on the Parliament of Georgia to responsibly assess the real interests of the country and refrain from decisions that may undermine aspirations of Georgia’s people to live in a democratic country which is advancing towards the EU and NATO," said Edgars Rinkēvičs (Latvia), Urmas Reinsalu (Estonia) and Gabrielius Landsbergis (Lithuania).
The Ministers added: "We call on the Government of Georgia to respect the right of people to a peaceful protest."
We, Foreign Ministers of 🇱🇻🇪🇪🇱🇹, are seriously concerned about the adoption of so called Foreign Agents Law in the 1st reading. If Georgia wants to progress towards the EU and NATO, it shall uphold to the principles of democracy, rule of law and human rights
