We support your sovereignty and your territorial integrity in a region which, we know, is complex.

Key Points: 
  • We support your sovereignty and your territorial integrity in a region which, we know, is complex.
  • I would like my presence to be an opportunity to reaffirm this message of friendship and support on the part of the European Union.
  • However, as you have mentioned, my visit comes at a time of deepening political crisis in Georgia.
  • This is a cause of great concern for the EU and for me personally.
