MEP Rasa Juknevičienė expresses support for 'brave' Georgians on Independence Day

Member of the European Parliament Rasa Juknevičienė extended her congratulations to Georgia on Independence Day and voiced strong support for the country’s pro-European aspirations in a post shared on X (formerly Twitter).

"Happy Independence Day to Georgia! 🇬🇪 Today you are continuing the same fight that has been lasting for more than a century," she wrote.
"I stand with all the brave Georgian people who demand what they deserve — freedom, democracy, and a pro-European future of their country."

Juknevičienė’s message comes amid growing public unrest and demonstrations in Georgia, where thousands have taken to the streets in defense of democratic values and the country’s European path.

Her words echo the solidarity expressed by numerous European officials on the occasion of Georgia’s Independence Day, commemorating the country’s declaration of independence on May 26, 1918.
