Problems of Georgian’s Relations with the EU

Georgia’s relations with the EU over their 30-year history have experienced both periods of rapid development and periods of decline. At the moment, there is a crisis in the relationship. It is caused by the EU’s refusal to grant Georgia candidate status. The reasons for the refusal are the increasing political confrontation between the government and the opposition, the bureaucratization and oligarchization of the country, problems with respect for human rights. In order for Georgia's application to be reviewed again, the country must fulfill in 6 months 12 conditions put forward by the European Commission.
