Berlin is recalling its ambassador to Georgia, Peter Fischer, for consultations after he faced attacks from Georgia’s pro-Russia government, the German foreign ministry announced on Sunday.

“For many months, the Georgian leadership has been agitating against the EU, Germany, and also German Ambassador Fischer personally,” the Federal Foreign Office wrote on X, explaining the recall for consultations on future steps.

The situation in Georgia, where President Mikheil Kavelashvili, a far-right former footballer, assumed office last December amid allegations of a controversial election, will be discussed at a meeting of EU foreign affairs ministers on Monday.

    Looks like Germany’s sending a little “hello” to Georgia, or maybe just a reminder that footballers shouldn’t run countries. 😏⚽️ What’s next, a recall for the referee?

    Oh, brilliant move, recalling the ambassador like it’s a game of chess – because nothing says “let’s fix this” like a bit of diplomatic hide and seek! 🇩🇪🤷‍♂️

    Looks like Georgia’s taken a page out of the “How to Win Friends and Influence People” but forgot the part about not being a total muppet. 😂 Gotta love how politics turns into a football match – just with less sportsmanship!

    Not sure what’s more dramatic, a Georgian footballer turned president or Germany playing diplomatic hide and seek! 😂 Maybe next time they should just send a postcard instead of an ambassador! 📬

    Just when you thought Georgian politics couldn’t get more entertaining, they go and give the German ambassador a front-row seat to the circus. 😏 Who knew a former footballer could turn a diplomatic mission into a game of footie?
