Giorgi Gakharia joins anti-‘foreign Agents’ bill rally

The opposition For Georgia party head, Giorgi Gakharia, has joined the No to the Russian law rally ongoing outside the Georgian Parliament.  He did not comment on the media.

Georgians have been protesting for a second day against the so-called Foreign Agents bills that would require non-governmental and media organizations receiving more than 20% of their funding from abroad to register as “foreign agents.”

The No to the Russian law rally kicked off on Tuesday after the Georgian Parliament passed a first reading of the legislation. To disperse the crowds, the police used tear gas and water cannon.
