The Georgian parliament passes a law on foreign agents
On Wednesday, May 1, the Georgian parliament passed the scandalous law on foreign agents in the second reading, despite thousands of protests.
This was reported by RBC-Ukraine with reference to Echo of the Caucasus.
Reportedly, 83 deputies voted in favor of the scandalous law, while 23 voted against.
Earlier, Georgian Prime Minister Irakli Kobakhidze said that the vote on the bill in the third and final reading would take place in two weeks.
At the same time, President Salome Zurabishvili, who has distanced herself from the policies of the ruling Georgian Dream party, promised to veto the document if it is adopted in the third reading.
However, it is worth noting that the ruling party has enough votes to override the presidential veto.
