This kind of political persecution of the critics of the govt under @GharibashviliGe is putting Georgia's 🇪🇺 perspective at risk.
Such actions go against the @EU_Commission recommendations. Most importantly, such actions go against the will of the Georgian People.

Today #Tbilisi Court of Appeals announced its decision on @NikaGvaramia's case. Nika will remain imprisoned for ~4 years.
I strongly condemn this decision of the Court.
It's yet another case which highlights the mistrust of the Georgian judicial system. 1/2

Where Russia gets involved, terror follows.
And Putin-Prigozhin criminals have been trying to compromise the African continent for a while now, inciting violence and terror. Let's not let continue for that to happen. 2/2

The so-called Wagner Group is committing war crimes across different continents - be it Mali or Ukraine.
That is not surprising knowing who runs it&where it gets its money from.
It's a proven fact that this militia is sponsored&controlled by a #terrorist state that is Russia.1/2

Russia is weaponizing food and starvation.
The problem of the breaking global food supply chain will only be solved when #Ukraine wins this war.
And #Ukraine will win. For that we have to stay united to help each other.
My address at the #ACP - #EU PA:

ACP-EU PA is a great format for exchanging views on critical topics for all partners.
The message the @EPPGroup brings to this Assembly is clear:
Don't give in to Putin's lies and intimidation. He is a foe, not a friend, and he cannot be trusted.

Putin is a criminal.
He is responsible for killing innocent civilians in 🇺🇦.
Among other things, he is also responsible for weaponizing food and putting lives at risk on other continents of the world.

This week I'm in Maputo🇲🇿 for the ACP-EU Parliamentary Assembly with my fellow @europarl_en colleagues. A few key issues on the agenda:
- impact of 🇷🇺's war against 🇺🇦 on global food supply chains
- fight against terrorism in sub-Saharan Africa
- climate change cooperation

It's not only Ukraine that is at war - it's the entire Europe that is at war.
Precise messaging matters.
Organizers at Fundacja im. bp. Tadeusza Pieronka nailed it with the conference title.

Also had the chance to meet the Metropolitan Epiphanius of Kyiv and All Ukraine. He was awarded the Bp. Tadeusz Pieronek’s Award “for outstanding achievements in combining Christian and European values”. Congratulations again! We will overcome this war together. 3/3

We live in a time when demanding more weapons for Ukraine is a Christian value.
Actually, it is the duty of every Christian. Contributing to overcoming evil is also the duty of every Christian.
These should be the guiding principles of Christian-based policymaking. 2/3

Putin and Stalin are the same war criminals
RT @daryazorka: Talked to my mom today. She lives in 🇵🇱 and she is friends with one elderly Polish lady. She told my mom that she was 5y.o. when #russians came to her city on their way to Germany during WW2. She remembers vividly how people were shouting:“russians are coming, hide the girls!”1/3

The @europarl_en should also play its part as the House of European Democracy - it should take the lead in formalizing EU relations with democratic Belarus, led by Sviatlana @Tsikhanouskaya.

Lukashenko gave Belarus away to Putin. These two war criminals are accomplices and must be brought to justice.
A dictator-less Belarus is possible only when Ukraine wins the war. Let’s keep supporting Ukraine and the democratic forces of Belarus. 1/2

RT @EPPGroup: 🚨 We do not recognise the dictator Lukashenko as the leader of Belarus!

Vladimir Kara-Murza is a democrat in the truest sense of the word. No wonder Kremlin fabricated charges to put him behind bars - such a strong force needed to be contained.
