Towards Europe: video series explores Georgia’s deep-rooted European ties
The European Union Delegation to Georgia has launched a video series designed to explore the historical bonds between Georgia and Europe. The series – Towards Europe – reminds viewers that while the formal EU-Georgia partnership has been developing for over three decades, the Georgian people have been striving towards European ideals for centuries.
The video series features Georgian historian Beka Kobakhidze, who recalls episodes in the long-standing path travelled by Georgia and Europe #ertad (together in Georgian). The series highlights the moments in Georgian history that reflect its deep and abiding connection to European values and traditions.
“Through this lasting partnership, the EU has played a transformative role, strengthening democratic institutions, fostering economic growth, enhancing education and infrastructure, and creating new opportunities for Georgian citizens to travel, work, and study across Europe,” the EU Delegation to Georgia said in a press release. “This video series serves as a powerful reminder of a shared past and a testament to the strong, ongoing partnership that continues to support Georgians on their European path.”
The videos are based on a publication from the Economic Policy Research Centre (EPRC), developed as part of its ‘United Georgia for Europe’ initiative.
The series is available in Georgian with English subtitles.
