Georgia receives candidate status
The European Council keeping the appetite for the EU’s eastward enlargement, decided to grant the candidate status to Georgia and open the accession negotiation with Ukraine and Moldova. The decision has a great political weight and sends a strong signal to the Georgian people. It says that Brussels sees and appreciates the Georgian people’s dedication and fight for freedom and Europeanization. However, this is not the end of the road, but rather the start of it.
