  • The European Union on Tuesday pressed Georgia's leadership for a swift resolution to the country's post-election political crisis as Brussels seeks to end a standoff with the opposition. EU chief Charles Michel has dispatched an envoy to Tbilisi to mediate a way out of the deadlock gripping the south Caucasus nation since parliamentary polls in October that the opposition denounced as rigged. "A special responsibility rests with the ruling party and the government to find a way forward," EU foreign policy chief Josep Borrell said at a press conference alongside Georgian premier Irakli Garibashvili. "As in any situation like this, give and take will be needed from both sides to find a mutually agreeable outcome." Garibashvili was visiting Brussels for the latest round of talks on the ex-Soviet state's relations with the EU as it seeks to maintain its pro-Western course. The government of Georgia -- which lost a brief war with Russia in 2008 -- has announced plans to apply for EU membership in 2024. Michel thrust the EU into a central role in trying to mediate Georgia's crisis during a visit to Tbilisi early this month after the arrest of opposition leader Nika Melia sent tensions soaring. Borrell said that EU envoy Christian Danielsson was currently mediating talks in Tbilisi and would put forward "concrete proposals" on the way ahead in the coming days. Garibashvili brushed off opposition calls for a snap election to break the deadlock. Opposition parties have refused to enter the new parliament since last year's vote, tarnishing the legitimacy of the ruling Georgian Dream party's government. In power since 2012, Georgian Dream has seen its popularity decline over a failure to address economic stagnation and perceived backsliding on commitments to democracy. del/gd
