When we reacted to the "law on foreign agents" in Georgia, there was a simple reason for this, since Georgia is a country that has shown interest and applied for EU membership, the press speaker of the EU Foreign Policy Service Peter Stano said. This is how he answered the journalist's question why the European Union reacted to the bill on "foreign agents" initiated in Georgia and why it does not have a similar reaction to the judicial reform initiated in Israel.

According to Stano, only one law of Georgia managed to violate two of the 12 priorities of the EU.

"When we reacted to the "law on foreign agents" in Georgia, there was a simple reason for this, since Georgia is a country that has shown interest and applied for EU membership - the European Union responded by recognizing their application, identifying 12 priorities that Georgia must fulfill in order to be part of the discussion and discussion on the status the candidate. Only one law of Georgia managed to violate two of these 12 priorities. I think it's obvious why the EU had a reaction", Peter Stano said.

As for judicial reform in Israel, according to the EU spokesperson, the EU is watching this very closely and sees that there is a very lively discussion on the proposed reform.

For information, up to 500,000 people demonstrated against judicial reform in Israel. According to media reports, this is the largest protest in the history of the country. The protest has been going on for weeks.
