Paweł Herczyński, the European Union Ambassador to Georgia, on Saturday said his “personal New Year’s wish did come true” and Georgia was starting 2024 as an EU candidate country.

In his New Year message, Herczyński noted that during his time as the EU Ambassador, he had “not met a single Georgian” who did not wish for the country’s candidacy, “so let’s celebrate the New Year and Christmas with this historic achievement [being granted the bloc’s candidate status in December] by Georgia”.
