In an interview with FRANCE 24, Georgian President Salomé Zourabichvili discussed the importance of her country's "rapprochement" with the European Union. "The political decision-making of the EU is not ripe today – because of different countries – to take any decision about enlargement", she explained. Asked about the wealth of high-ranking officials in Georgia, Zourabichvili insisted "we have very little elite corruption". Finally, she reacted to this summer's protests in the capital Tbilisi.
