Georgian PM reaffirms Gov’t’s commitment to ensuring peace, stability, development

Georgian Prime Minister Irakli Kobakhidze on Thursday reaffirmed his Government's commitment to ensuring peace, stability, and development within the country.

Speaking to journalists, the Prime Minister emphasised that peace and stability were paramount for Georgia’s well-being.

“We are responsible for maintaining peace, stability, and development in Georgia. The most important good is peace and stability”, the PM said.

The Prime Minister also addressed the domestic Transparency Law, asserting that it safeguards the state from extremism and revolutions. He contended that the term ‘Russian law’ used to describe the legislation was a "lie".

“The Transparency Law protects our state from extremism and revolutions. The entire society has come to understand that the term ‘Russian law’ was a lie. This law fully complies with international standards, including human rights, and it protects our country from destabilisation”, Kobakhidze continued.

He further emphasised that foreign funding “should not be used to incite revolutionary processes in Georgia”.

“Funds such as those from the EU, the National Endowment for Democracy, and USAID - the latter being a former American foundation abolished by the Trump administration - must not be used to promote revolutionary movements in Georgia”, the Prime Minister concluded.
