Fights broke out in the Georgian parliament after the adoption of the "foreign agent" bill as it went through the third and final reading. Protests were continuing outside, with demonstrators vowing to keep fighting against the legislation, which they say could curtail civil liberties.

💯 thank you for your comment, i have always wondered, do these people get to see our comments? I hope our voices make a difference. And how does the common human not communicate the fact that we all want the same thing. To be happy, enjoy the life we have, and to feel safe. Evil exists, but it is not prominent. Keep love your hearts for each other, and know together you will overcome those that wish to do you harm or control you and rob you of the right to happiness.

But the question is United along not United with Western Europe or united with the United States rules!!, they have no idea what they are requesting, look at many other European Union countries who wants to exit the EU, like Hungary, look at the UK they exit, they need to quit believing in political Messiahs, they need to fight for their own freedom their own system, so they want to depend on someone, but just because they're not part of NATO they will become part of Russia? They are absolutely wrong in that part!! they need to stay independent with their own principles not depending on any country!!

Russia has signed agreements with the de facto civilian administrations of both territories to integrate them militarily and economically into Russia. Russian troops have started the process of demarcation (also known as "borderisation") along, and allegedly beyond, the border between the rest of Georgia and the self-declared Republic of South Ossetia.

It’s worthy to work out how Georgia has had so many pro-conservative MPs while the people appear to oppose. And also, what’s the motivation behind the MPs’ overwhelming support for the foreign agent act, what do they want to achieve so urgently, or what do they fear and want to get rid of.

lol stop buying Putin's NATO bs. The people of Ukraine elected Yanukovich specifically on the platform of joining the EU, *NOT* NATO (who had declined them membership anyway). Much like Georgia, Yanukovych took his Russian bribe, came home, and told the people "I rejoined the Russian CSTO because that's worked out so well for us, and tore up the agreement to join the EU I said I was going after when you elected me." The Ukrainians kicked that bum out, he fled to Russia, and Putin then seized all oil-rich parts of Ukraine. Tough decisions and tough times ahead for the Georgian people.

Hitler first took land from neighboring countries for 'free' claiming they were German citizens and those lands really belonged to Germany anyway. The rest of the world appeased him. When appeasement ended, he took the lands violently militarily. All the countries on Hitler's borders (notably Poland) saw Hitler's aggressive actions and intent and started building up their military. Hitler threw a fit, stating this was aggressive "anti German" behavior, and a threat to Germany. When he got the allies to buy that BS and Poland disarmed, he made his deal with Stalin and Germany and Russia agreed to invade Poland and carve it up together. Georgian people want to be able to live their own lives and make up their own minds. They don't want to be thrown in jail for presenting a different view than their Russian owned politicians tell them. People will win.
