SUMMARY:Keeping Georgia on the EU-Enlargement Agenda: Visit of Georgian Civil Society Representatives to Brussels
DESCRIPTION:Background \nAs Georgia faces its most serious political crisis since indepen­dence\, the country is rapidly sliding (or has already slid) into author­i­tar­i­anism under the current ruling party – the Georgian Dream. The adoption of repressive laws—including legis­lation inspired by the Russian “foreign agents” model\, American FARA\, new media regula­tions\, and new laws curbing the human rights\, including freedom of speech and assembly—signals an open crackdown on civil society\, media\, political opposition\, and pro-European voices. This backsliding threatens not only the country’s democ­ratic fabric but also its European future. This also firmly places Georgia in the Russian orbit. \nIn this critical moment\, a group of leading Georgian civil society repre­sen­ta­tives will visit Brussels to brief key EU insti­tu­tions\, political groups\, and partners about the situation on the ground. The delegation\, organized by the Center of Liberal Modernity brings together diverse expertise and networks\, unified by a shared commitment to democ­ratic values and the defense of Georgia’s European path. \nPurpose \nThe purpose of the visit is to provide EU stake­holders with a timely and accurate briefing on the deepening political crisis in Georgia\, marked by the ruling party’s author­i­tarian drift and escalating repression against independent voices. The delegation will focus on the impli­ca­tions of recently adopted draconian laws targeting civil society\, media\, and political opponents—legislation that threatens to dismantle Georgia’s democ­ratic founda­tions and derail its European integration path. \nPartic­i­pants \n\nMarieluise Beck\, Senior Fellow\, LibMod\nKhatia Kikalishvili\, Program Director\, Eastern Partnership\, LibMod\nSergi Kapanadze\, Co-Founder\, Georgia’s Reforms Associates (GRASS)\nTina Khidasheli\, Founder\, Civic IDEA\nNino Chachava\, Coordi­nator EU Integration\, Civil Society Foundation (CSF)\nSaba Brajveli\, Human Rights Program Manager\, Civil Society Foundation (CSF)
