The European Parliament will discuss the recent visit to Georgia

The European Parliament's Subcommittee on Human Rights (DROI) will hold an extraordinary meeting today to consider the issue of Georgia. The agenda includes a report on the visit of the body's representatives to the country on 26-28 May.

Earlier, the EP adopted several critical resolutions on Georgia, including one calling on the international community to join the boycott of the "self-proclaimed" government formed by the Georgian Dream. The European Parliament considers the fifth president Salome Zurabishvili to be the only legitimate representative of power in the country.

Official Tbilisi, in turn, states that the EP resolutions are dictated by the interests of the so-called Deep State - a shadow network of influence. The rapporteur of the European Parliament on Georgia, Rasa Jukneviciene, is called an "infection" in the ruling party.
