I regret that the Government has effectively chosen to halt the Euro-Atlantic integration of Georgia, - this is how the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Iceland, Þórdís Kolbrún Reykfjörð Gylfadóttir, thus responded to the Georgian Parliament's move to override the President's veto on the law "On Transparency of Foreign Influence".

 

"The people of Georgia had their eyes set on a European future, which the Government has now put in jeopardy with the passing of the foreign agent law. Regret that the Government has effectively chosen to halt the Euro-Atlantic integration of Georgia", she wrote on X.

 

The Parliament overrode the President's veto on the law "On transparency of foreign influence" yesterday. The draft law presented by the Georgian Dream faction and vetoed by Salome Zurabishvili was supported by 84 votes.
