The European Union has decided to suspend visa-free travel for Georgian citizens holding diplomatic and service passports.<\/p>\n
As reported by Caliber.Az<\/a>, the information was shared<\/a> on X by Rikard Jozwiak, editor at Radio Free Europe\/Radio Liberty.<\/p>\n The suspension is set to come into force in early March and will not apply to regular Georgian passport holders.<\/p>\n Among the 27 EU member states, only Hungary and Slovakia opposed the decision. Nevertheless, both countries are obligated to adhere to the EU\u2019s collective ruling.<\/p>\n In addition, similar restrictions targeting Georgia have been introduced unilaterally by the Baltic states, along with Romania, Bulgaria, the Czech Republic, Luxembourg, the Netherlands, France, Belgium, and Italy.<\/p>\n By Tamilla Hasanova<\/p>\n Caliber.Az<\/p>\n Read more about the key topics in this news story.<\/p>\n Views: 38<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"11 February 2026 18:01 The European Union has decided to suspend visa-free travel for Georgian citizens holding diplomatic…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":1285,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[1258,203,1263,18,1259,1262,1257,1261,1260,1256],"class_list":{"0":"post-1284","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-brussels","8":"tag-analysis-of-azerbaijan","9":"tag-azerbaijan","10":"tag-baku","11":"tag-brussels","12":"tag-important-news-of-azerbaijan","13":"tag-international-experts","14":"tag-interviews","15":"tag-interviews-with-azerbaijani-analysts","16":"tag-news-from-baku","17":"tag-news-of-azerbaijan"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/be\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1284","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/be\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/be\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/be\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/be\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1284"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/be\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1284\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/be\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1285"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/be\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1284"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/be\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1284"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/be\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1284"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
