BRUSSELS, Feb 2 (Reuters) - European Union foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas said on Sunday that a crackdown on protesters in Georgia was unacceptable and that Europe stands with the Georgian people.
"The brutal crackdown on peaceful protesters, journalists and politicians tonight in Tbilisi is unacceptable," Kallas wrote on social media platform X.
Police in Georgia arrested several anti-government protesters on Sunday as thousands of demonstrators demanding new parliamentary elections briefly blocked a motorway.
"Georgia falls short of any expectation from a candidate country. The EU stands with the people of Georgia in their fight for freedom and democracy," Kallas said.
