Strasbourg, France – Georgian President Salome Zourabichvili is scheduled to deliver an address to the European Parliament on December 19, 2024. This is a historic event, marking the first time a Georgian President has addressed the European Parliament.
President Zourabichvili’s address is expected to focus on Georgia’s commitment to European integration and its aspirations to join the European Union (EU). Georgia has been an EU candidate country since 2024 and has made significant progress in meeting the necessary reforms and conditions for membership.
In her address, President Zourabichvili is likely to highlight Georgia’s democratic values, its economic growth, and its important role as a strategic partner for the EU in the Black Sea region. Georgia has been a strong supporter of Ukraine during the ongoing war with Russia and has played a key role in providing humanitarian aid and support.
The European Parliament has been a consistent supporter of Georgia’s EU aspirations and has repeatedly called on the EU to provide financial and technical assistance to help Georgia meet the necessary conditions for membership. The Parliament is also expected to issue a resolution following President Zourabichvili’s address, reiterating its support for Georgia’s European path.
Georgia’s EU aspirations are supported by a strong majority of the Georgian people. Recent polls have shown that over 80% of Georgians favor joining the EU. The Georgian government has made EU integration a top priority and has implemented a number of reforms to meet the requirements for membership.
The European Parliament’s invitation to President Zourabichvili to address the Parliament is a clear indication of the EU’s commitment to Georgia’s European path. Georgia is expected to continue its reforms and to work closely with the EU to achieve its goal of joining the European Union.
