Police in Georgia dispersed protesters opposing the “Transparency of Foreign Influence” bill using tear gas and batons, leading to 11 detentions. Demonstrators gathered in Tbilisi, expressing concerns that the bill could curb freedom of expression and stifle NGOs. Chants of “No to Russian law” echoed as tensions rose, resulting in clashes between police and protesters. President Zurabishvili supported the protests, criticizing the government’s handling of the bill as a potential destabilization strategy orchestrated by Russia. Negotiations on the bill will resume amid ongoing demonstrations.
