The Georgian parliament approved in the first reading the odious bill “On the Transparency of Foreign Influence”, created in the best traditions of Russian propaganda. In fact, it repeats the Russian legislation on “foreign agents”.
On the evening of March 7, thousands of people gathered outside the parliament to rally against the law. Then the protesters tried to storm the parliament, but the security forces pushed them back. Using water cannons and tear gas, the special forces cleared Shota Rustaveli Square.
