Georgia: Passing of foreign influence law in1st reading - despite repeated calls by 🇪🇺 & mass protests - is very concerning. The final adoption would negatively impact 🇬🇪 progress on its EU path.This law is not in line with 🇪🇺 core norms & values.  eeas.europa.eu/eeas/georgia-s…

#Estonia fully supports #Georgia ’s civil society.

Any attempt to constrain its activities will move Georgia 🇬🇪 away from it’s goal, the membership in the #EuropeanUnion 🇪🇺

Current mood in #Tbilisi

🇬🇪 Georgia: 'The final adoption of this legislation [on the “transparency of foreign influence”] would negatively impact Georgia’s progress on its EU path'.
Read the statement by HR/VP Josep Borrell Fontelles and the Commissioner for Neighbourhood & Enlargement: europa.eu/!Ft8nNJ.

Georgia’s place is in the 🇪🇺 not with Russia

The Georgian people have chosen the European path and in response, the European Council granted #Georgia the candidate status last December.

Let me be clear: the draft Law on Transparency of Foreign Influence is not consistent with Georgia’s EU aspiration and its accession

'This is not the war of the Russian people;
it is Putin’s war,'
he is fundamentally mistaken.'

Last night, I had a pleasure to join BBC Newsnight

Thanks to Natia Seskuria for joining #Newsnight this evening to provide some analysis on the future of political government opposition in Russia, following Alexei Navalny’s death.

Highly predictable but still very shocking and sad.
