“The Federal Foreign Office firmly rejects and condemns the baseless accusations by Mr. Papuashvili. We are worried that by spreading disinformation and divisive narratives, he is actively undermining Germany-Georgia relations,” reads a statement issued by the German Federal Foreign Office and circulated by the German Embassy in Georgia.

Furthermore, the statement highlights that the German Foreign Office “firmly rejects the continuing aggressive rhetoric by representatives of the Georgian Dream towards the German Ambassador.”

“The German ambassador in Tbilisi represents the position of the Federal Government. Germany reiterates its call on the Georgian authorities to stop spreading false narratives regarding EU and German positions and policies and to change its current political course,” reads the statement.
