Not really Europe, not really Asia, but overall closer to Europe.
I have met many travelers in Georgia and nobody viewed Georgia as Asia.
Why should you call Georgia Asia, or Middle East?
By phenotype Georgians are closer to "proper" euro type (nord type), than many southern europeans are.
Georgia is more democratic and less corrupted than many states that are already EU members, not to mention countries like Moldova,Ukraine or Balkan countries.
Landscapes are rather Swiss or Norwegian than anything Middle Eastern.
This is how a German guy views Georgia

This is the Georgian genomic picture:
77% Asia Minor
7% Southern Europe
6% Central Asia
5% Southwest Asia and Persian Gulf
4% Eastern Europe
2% Jewish Diaspora
After seeing the genetic picture of the people of Georgia as a whole, do you think they are Europeans?

Georgians and Adygheans can be counted as quasi europeans

broadly European, but you have several very different regions within Europe, so as Italians are not European in the way Russians or Norwegians are, or Brits are not European in the way Romanians are, the same Georgians/Azeri/Armenians are not European in the way those west of the Black Sea are. if Westernized enough and with democracy instead of religiously-led countries, one could stretch Europe to the entire Indo-European-speaking region, from Iceland to India, why not? The IndoEuropean Union xD

Brahmins, Tajiks, Jatts and Pashtuns are honorary Europeans.

they're phenotypically distinct from european races, but they're still much closer to them than to asian races.
