The European Union representation in Georgia on Wednesday said Georgians continued to face detention for exercising their fundamental rights, amid ongoing protests against the Government’s decision last year to halt EU accession until 2028.
“The arrest of [media founder] Mzia Amaghlobeli and [cameraman] Guram Murvanidze further degrades freedom of expression. All those unjustly detained must be released. The EU calls for the right to fair trials to be upheld. Impunity cannot prevail”, said the statement.
