Georgian Prime Minister Kobakhidze accused European leaders of lack of etiquette


French President Emmanuel Macron, Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk, and German Chancellor Friedrich Merz do not follow etiquette. Georgian Prime Minister Irakli Kobakhidze announced this on May 27.
Earlier, on Monday, the leaders of the two countries sent a letter congratulating the citizens of Georgia on Independence Day and condemning the actions of the authorities related to society, the media, and opponents. Political figures also supported the democratic intentions of the citizens. The letter was published by the French Embassy in Georgia.
"First of all, it is a matter of etiquette not to distribute such a statement on May 26. May 26 is a public holiday, and on such days it is customary to send congratulatory letters and make festive statements. They don't follow protocol and etiquette, which means they don't act according to their real objective interests," Kobakhidze told reporters, as quoted by RIA Novosti.
He also noted that Macron had previously stated a different position during a meeting in Albania, which means that a person cannot make independent decisions. According to Kobakhidze, there is strong pressure on "European countries" in Europe, she added.Газета.Ru ".
Earlier, on May 13, it was reported that Kobakhidze, in a letter to US President Donald Trump and Vice President Jay Dee Vance, expressed bewilderment at Washington's silence on the topic of restarting relations between the two states. According to him, communication between the countries at the highest level has not yet taken place.
