Parliament to approve Georgia’s EU integration resolution today

The draft resolution on Georgia’s European Union integration will be approved by the country’s Parliament today, with the document at the top of the plenary session’s agenda.

The resolution contains 13 points and calls on EU member states and institutions, as well as the Georgian Government, to take all necessary steps to accelerate Georgia's accession to the Union.

On March 11, the European Council invited the European Commission, the executive branch of the European Union, to submit its opinions on the EU membership applications of the Republic of Moldova and Georgia.

Georgia officially applied for membership on March 3, with Prime Minister Irakli Garibashvili signing the country’s membership application.
