There is no Political Crisis in Georgia, Premier Says
Speaking at a press conference in Tbilisi, Irakli Kobakhidze said his country’s institutions remain stable and functioning. "There is a stable parliamentary majority, a stable government, and therefore no political crisis," he said.

Kobakhidze accused some radical forces of trying to destabilize the country during the protests and credited security forces with thwarting alleged attempts to overthrow the government.

On Nov. 28, Kobakhidze announced that in response to European political interference and extortion with EU funds, Georgia would suspend its EU accession talks until 2028, although it would continue working toward EU membership by 2030.

The decision sparked outrage, with thousands of protesters taking to the streets of Tbilisi.
