Lithuania has published a list of 102 Georgian officials sanctioned over concerns about democratic backsliding and the erosion of the rule of law in Georgia.
The list, released Tuesday by the Lithuanian Foreign Ministry, includes billionaire and ruling party founder Bidzina Ivanishvili, Prime Minister Irakli Kobakhidze, and Tbilisi Mayor Kakha Kaladze. All listed individuals are now banned from entering Lithuania.
The move follows a March 3 decision to impose visa restrictions targeting those accused of obstructing Georgia’s democratic and Euro-Atlantic path. It marks the first time an EU country has enacted personal sanctions of this scale against members of Georgia’s political elite.
The sanctions apply to senior government officials, lawmakers, judges, prosecutors, and security officers allegedly complicit in anti-democratic activities.
