[Charles Michel @CharlesMichel]

The European Council has decided to open accession negotiations with Ukraine & Moldova.

#EUCO granted candidate status to Georgia. And the EU will open negotiations with Bosnia and Herzegovina once the necessary degree of compliance with the membership criteria is reached and has invited the commission to report by March with a view to taking such a decision.

A clear signal of hope for their people and for our continent.

[Gert Jan Koopman @GertJanEU]

Impressive to see buildings across Tbilisi lit up with 🇪🇺#EU flags last week when we recommended candidate status for 🇬🇪#Georgia!

There is clearly strong support for the country's EU path: now is the time to accelerate work on the outstanding 9 steps!

[European Commission @EU_Commission]

Another historic step for the citizens of 🇺🇦🇲🇩🇬🇪🇧🇦 regarding their 🇪🇺 aspirations.

We’ve adopted our 2023 Enlargement Package recommending to open negotiations with Ukraine and Moldova, to grant candidate status to Georgia, and to open accession negotiations with Bosnia and Herzegovina, once the necessary degree of compliance is achieved

Completing our Union is the natural horizon.

გამარჯობა, საქართველო!

Delighted to arrive in beautiful Tbilisi.

Busy days ahead meeting with Georgian authorities, civil society and visiting @EUMMGeorgia in the field.

[Roberta Metsola @EP_President]

15 years ago, Russia invaded Georgia - a vicious tactic of aggression and occupation.

The Kremlin did not want to let Georgians decide on their own future.

@Europarl_EN will continue to support territorial integrity, sovereignty & European aspirations of the people of Georgia.

[Oliver Varhelyi @OliverVarhelyi]

15 years!
In Aug 2008 Abkhazia & SOssetia/Tskhinvali regions were occupied.
Ever since 🇬🇪lives under the threat of heavy Russian military presence in the occupied regions.
We stand by the independency& territorial integrity of 🇬🇪 & call upon Russia to meet its int obligations.

[Ilia Darchiashvili @iliadarch]

Glad to be participating in the EU #FAC session. This is a unique opportunity to speak with my colleagues regarding 🇬🇪's progress in terms of implementing the EU Commission's 12 recommendations, as well as the steps 🇬🇪 gov't is taking to bring our country closer to EU Membership.

The Black Sea electric cable is a new transmission route full of opportunities.

It could integrate Georgia to our electricity market and bring electricity to our neighbours in the Western Balkans, Moldova and of course Ukraine.

Let’s work together to make it real.

[Ilia Darchiashvili @iliadarch]

I appreciate #GAC conclusions acknowledging 🇬🇪's important steps in its reform process. 🇬🇪continues to address the Commission priorities in order to advance on EU accession path. Strengthening sectoral coop & integration into EU’s internal market benefits 🇬🇪’s EU membership goal.

[Nellie Shiolashvili 🇬🇪🇪🇺 @nelikosh]

@KironReid @KironReid gaamos (Georgian word for "enjoy") and "spasibo" was really extra in this context🙂 dyakuyu/gmadlob is fully enough🙂

[Oliver Varhelyi @OliverVarhelyi]

We see that the vast majority of #Georgia is for EU membership.
This is a very strong mandate, not only for the government, but the entire political elite of the country, & everybody who is active in working on this.

We make Georgia ready for becoming a member of the EU.

[Oliver Varhelyi @OliverVarhelyi]

In this new geopolitical era, 🇬🇪 made a very clear message to us: it is only 🇪🇺membership that #Georgia considers to be strong enough for long-term peace, stability & prosperity. I am here to tell you that we are ready to deliver on this message.

The EU remains committed to Georgia's security and territorial integrity.

The #EUCO decided to recognize the European perspective of Georgia and is ready to grant candidate status once the outstanding priorities are addressed.

Congratulations to the Georgian people.

A historic moment in EU-Georgia relations: Georgia's future lies within the EU. 🇪🇺🇬🇪

[Ilia Darchiashvili @iliadarch]

Had a meaningful ☎️ conversation with my Ukrainian colleague @DmytroKuleba. Once again accentuated 🇬🇪-🇺🇦 strategic partnership. I reiterated steadfast support for 🇺🇦 in this tremendously difficult time. We will continue working for strengthening friendship between our nations.
