Abstract
Georgia is a candidate country for EU membership and has undertaken the obligations of implementing reforms in the country and fulfilling the conditions of the EU accession process. Among these obligations, one of the most important is the political criteria for accession, and more specifically the fulfillment of the fundamentals of accession, which refer to the rule of law, the protection of human rights, and the development of democratic institutions. Since 2016, since the entry into force of the Association Agreements, Georgia has been implementing various reforms in order to bring Georgia’s legislation closer to the EU standards, and has made some progress in various fields. Georgia’s candidate status was granted under certain conditions, and in recent years it has been a special challenge to fulfill the foundations of the EU accession process, and accession negotiations with the country have not been opened in 2024. This paper discusses the progress of Georgia in the direction of the foundations of accession.
