"If we have to choose between peace and stability and a visa-free regime, we will choose the first" - Kobakhidze

If there is a choice: peace and stability or a visa-free regime with the EU, we will, of course, give priority to peace and stability. This is the choice of the Georgian people. This was stated by the President of Ukraine Irakli Kobakhidze.

"Whether a citizen will travel to Europe with a visa or without it is not an ontological question, while what they (the EU) are proposing - to undermine our peace and stability - is an ontological question....

...Today, the military rhetoric of the leaders of the EU member states is so tense that the end of the Russian-Ukrainian military conflict is not in sight. Everything is being done to prolong it. The maximum armament of Ukraine, the supply of long-range weapons, the tightening of sanctions against Russia, the statements of retired generals about the preparation of a war with Russia in the near future - all this clearly demonstrates the plan of the global war party to continue and escalate the Russian-Ukrainian war at the expense of Europe," Kobakhidze said.
