Despite the fact that the candidate status was conceived as a tool of blackmail against Georgia, we withstood the blackmail and received the candidate status, - said Georgian Prime Minister Irakli Kobakhidze.
According to Kobakhidze, European integration remains the main foreign policy priority.
"We think that by 2030 it will be quite realistic to think about this, namely, by 2030 we will be more prepared than all candidate countries to join the European Union. In all respects, this applies to democracy, human rights, the rule of law, as well as the economy and general readiness for EU membership. Accordingly, we are very optimistic about the future of our country from all point of view," - Irakli Kobakhidze noted on Imedi.
