Georgian President Salome Zourabichvili has proposed a public referendum on the “Transparency of Foreign Influence” law after the parliament overrode her veto. Addressing protesters, Zourabichvili emphasized that the decision on the country’s future should be made by the people, not just 84 parliament members. She urged citizens to gather signatures for the referendum and highlighted the importance of youth mobilization for the upcoming elections. The controversial law was passed despite her veto, sparking fears of reduced democratic freedoms and closer ties with Russia.
