‘Place du Luxembourg’ is a popular meeting place in the European Quarter in Brussels. It is always crowded, as it was on June 26. Photo by PM’s press office.
On June 26, the day before the Georgia-EU Association Agreement was signed, Luxembourg Square looked very Georgian. Restaurants and bars all over the place were decorated with Georgian and EU flags. Photo by PM’s press office.
Georgian flags were everywhere: On the streets… Photo by PM’s press office.

People were talking about everything – some were discussing football, others were speaking about private news but many were curious why Luxembourg Square was full of red-and-white flags. Photo by PM's Press Office.
Slogans on young peoples’ t-shirts explained the reason for the celebration. Once people understood, Georgians received a lot of congratulations from Europeans. Photo by PM's Press Office.
