1⃣6⃣y since #Aug2008War, #EU:
🇪🇺 condemns 🇷🇺's #aggression & ongoing #occupation of 🇬🇪's regions;
🇪🇺 stresses that 🇷🇺 must implement the 2008 #CeasefireAgreement & cease HR violations in 🇬🇪's occupied territories;
🇪🇺 reiterates its unwavering support to🇬🇪.
15years ago, shortly after #Aug2008War, #EU🇪🇺 deployed @EUMMGeorgia to monitor fulfilment of t/#CeasefireAgreement & ensure #security on whole territory of🇬🇪.
Since then #EUMM🇪🇺 plays critical role for peace in🇬🇪, though it’s still deprived of access to occupied reg’s by Russia.
15 years ago, on 15 September 2008, the 🇪🇺 established EUMM. Since then, we have been contributing to stability in Georgia and the wider region.
👇 Our previous Heads of Mission share some of the Mission's achievements during their time in charge.

On 12.08.2008 #EU brokered #CeasefireAgreement to end #Russia’s aggression in #Georgia.
15y passed since #Aug2008War & 🇷🇺still occupies 20% of🇬🇪territory.
🇬🇪values 🇪🇺’s valuable engagement in peace process through #EUSR, #EUMM, mediation in #GID/#IPRMs & #NonRecognition policy.
#RUS🇷🇺 aggression against #GEO🇬🇪 didn’t start or end in #Aug2008War.
This card was later played in🇺🇦too.
Only right response - not allowing🇷🇺 2impose own rules &undermine free choice of sovrgn nations.
🇬🇪is #Europe &its future is in #EU🇪🇺 & #NATO.
My🎥comment to @MunSecConf👇
Today marks 15 years since #Russia started its military aggression against #Georgia. A fifth of 🇬🇪's territory remains occupied.
Last year, we asked @KChumbadze how her country sees Russia's war against #Ukraine. Here is what she said 👇
