50,000 Protest in Tbilisi Against 'Foreign Agents' Bill, PM Kobakhidze Responds
May 11, 2024, 07:35 PM
In Tbilisi, Georgia, approximately 50,000 citizens have taken to the streets in a series of protests against the proposed 'foreign agents' bill, which is perceived to be inspired by similar Russian legislation used to suppress dissent. The protests, described as the largest in Georgia's recent history, have been centered around Europe Square, where demonstrators voiced their preference for alignment with the European Union over Russia. The bill, currently awaiting its third and final reading in the Georgian parliament, has sparked significant public outcry, with chants of 'yes to the EU, no to Russia' echoing through the capital. The rally concluded with the raising of the Georgian flag on the statue of Vakhtang Gorgasali, followed by dispersal due to a sudden heavy rain. The protests follow recent statements by Prime Minister Kobakhidze.
