BREAKING: Russia has declared Georgian political party Droa (of which I am the Foreign Secretary) an "undesirable organization."
The decision was made by the Prosecutor General’s Office of Russia.
What are we “guilty” of?
1. Recognizing Abkhazia and the Tskhinvali region as territories of Georgia occupied by Russia, and Russia as a violator of international law and Georgia’s sovereignty;
2. Exposing the secret ties between Ivanishvili’s regime and Russia;
3. Working to end the one-party system in Georgia;
4. Promoting the idea of Georgia’s accelerated integration into the European Union;
5. Actively supporting the Ukrainian government, advocating closer cooperation between Georgia and Ukraine, and supporting Georgia’s participation in the “Carpathian Eight” (Austria, Hungary, Poland, Serbia, Slovakia, Romania, and the Czech Republic);
6. And, finally, because Droa’s leader, Elene Khoshtaria, accuses Georgian Dream of supporting a pro-Russian course and sabotaging the European integration process.

In Timișoara, I stood on the Opera House balcony, a symbol of Romania’s revolution.
It was here, in 1989, that the uprising against Ceaușescu’s dictatorship began. Thousands of people took to the streets demanding freedom. Despite brutal repression, they refused to back down.
Looking out over the square, I immediately thought of our people in Minsk in 2020. The same courage. The same desire for freedom.
Romanians did not know when they would win, but they believed and did not give up. Today, Romania is a free and democratic country.
This place reminds us that all dictatorships fall. I believe Belarusians, too, will one day gather in our squares knowing that our country is finally free.

🇬🇪 Our Georgian member party @DroaParty has been declared an “undesirable organisation” by Russia for standing up against occupation, defending Georgia’s sovereignty and fighting for a European future.
ALDE Party and @LYMEC received the same designation last year.
We stand firmly with Droa and all those fighting for a free, democratic and European Georgia!

🇬🇪Georgia’s Constitutional Court is deciding whether to ban every party that won a seat against Georgian Dream in 2024.
Two years of continuous nightly protest, 91 political prisoners and a frozen EU path lead to this.
