Protests in Georgia: what is known

Protests erupted in Georgia on March 7 over a pro-Russian “foreign agent” law that harms the country's European integration.

On March 8, activists protested again. The protesters put forward two demands to the authorities: to withdraw the law “on foreign agents” from parliament and to release all the detainees. But the government refused.

After that, the Georgians decided to stage a peaceful “parliament siege”. At the same time, some of them are trying to demolish the barriers near the building.
