United National Movement street sign 'Our foreign policy priority is the integration into NATO' (Rustaveli Avenue, Tbilisi, 23 September 2011)
A tall white street-furniture pillar on a tree-lined avenue carries a blue panel with the white NATO compass-star emblem under the English line 'OUR FOREIGN POLICY PRIORITY IS THE INTEGRATION INTO NATO'. Above it a large blue ring frames a round party badge showing the Georgian five-cross flag and the web address www.unm.ge. The tells are the alliance's own emblem used as the backdrop for a party message, and the party badge fixed to the municipal-looking pillar so the foreign-policy line reads as the party's.
