EU Ministerial Council to discuss the situation in Georgia and Ukraine - future draft decisions expected

The Council of EU Foreign Ministers will discuss the situation in Georgia after the parliamentary elections today.


As a result of the meeting, it will be known whether the EU will start the process of suspending the visa-free regime and whether it will impose sanctions against representatives of the Georgian government, writes @TbilisiFM935.


Four opposition associations, which are contesting the results of the elections in Georgia, addressed an extensive letter to the foreign ministers of the EU member states, calling on them to “support the historic struggle of the Georgian people to save democracy in the country.”


Georgia is second on the agenda, after Ukraine.


U.S. President Joe Biden this Sunday, near the end of his term, did what Kiev has been asking him to do for months: lift the ban on ATACMS ballistic tactical missile strikes on Russian territory.


France and Britain followed the United States in authorizing Ukraine to use its long-range SCALP/Storm Shadow missiles, according to the French publication Le Figaro.


These decisions were announced against the backdrop of the tragedy in the city of Sumy in northeastern Ukraine: on Sunday, a Russian ballistic missile hit a high-rise building. Ten people died, among them two children, and more than 50 were wounded.
