The U.S. State Department, represented by Chief of Press Matthew Miller, along with senior officials from the UN and EU, have strongly criticized Georgia's recent adoption of a law on 'foreign agents'. Described as 'Kremlin-inspired', the law aims to silence critical voices and undermine civil society in Georgia, fostering anti-Western sentiment. The EU has deemed the legislation 'unacceptable', and the White House expressed deep concerns about its impact on free speech.
