GAIN YOUR FREEDOM TOGETHER WITH US!
We talked about this with Mr. Prime Minister, this is a very important fact and I heard from him that the punishment will be carried out in full force - EU Commissioner Olivér Várhelyi, who is paying an official visit to Georgia, responded to the fact that the EU flag was lowered and torn down.
He answered the question of "Mtavari Channel" on this topic:
"No fact of vandalism and violence will be the beginning of anything! This means that everyone should know that violence does not give birth to anything. We talked about this with Mr. Prime Minister, this is a very important fact and I heard from him that punishment will be carried out in full force, law enforcement agencies are involved. On a full scale and all those who took part in this violence will be brought to justice with all their might.
As for the EU flag, I would say that barbarism starts with the burning of flags, but for me, it is not an important sign, but more importantly, this morning the Speaker of Parliament with his own hands erected the flag, this is important," said EU Commissioner Olivér Várhelyi
