Shalva Papuashvili’s statement regarding the position of the EU Ambassador

The Chairman of the Parliament of Georgia, Shalva Papuashvili, criticized the statement of the EU Embassy and noted that the EU Ambassador, Pawel Herczynski, publicly encouraged swearing at one's mother, which, in his assessment, was presented in the context of freedom of expression and cultural heritage. According to Papuashvili, if swearing at one's mother is a common occurrence in Poland, it is unacceptable in Georgia, and the Ambassador should act in accordance with Georgian culture and society. 1TV+4

According to the Chairman of the Parliament, various EU institutions are supporting and funding radicalism, which constitutes the main barrier to restoring relations between Georgia and the European Union. Papuashvili emphasized that as soon as the encouragement of radicalism ends, relations will naturally be restored. 1TV+3
