    @@fnmkd3142 In the US, foreign funded NGOs are required to be listed as foreign agents according to the Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA). This is the exact law the Georgian Dream party is basing theres on. Georgia has poor relations with Russia, it merely want's to be an independent and sovereign state, free from western NGOs.
