After last night's police crackdown on peaceful demonstrators, star players of the Georgian National #Rugby team began posting their support for the #NoToRussianLaw rally and expressing their protest against the police's use of force.
Love this! Proud of our youth in some many ways! Civic culture is something that vatniks and titushkis will never understand!

Tbilisi, Rustaveli Avenue, May 1, 3am You can't just crush these people with force; instead, you ignite them, making them even more furious
none of these robocops are wearing the mandatory identification tags -- this is political responsibility all the way to the top, of purposefully keeping police unaccountable. (Yep, sure, "transparency".)

Ivanishvili today: West is a danger to sovereignty; West is planning a revolution; West was behind UNM atrocities; West wants to capture CEC & Court; West confronted🇬🇪to Russia in 2008; Global War Party controls NATO & EU; Not a single word on Russia.
How can you hit us? We stand here for Georgia — she tells riot police

@HansGutbrod clearly spells out why the @GeorgianDream41's Russian Law has nothing at all to do with transparency and is all about eliminating NGOs that have been strengthening local civil society for years. A must read - A Destructive Venture freiheit.org/south-caucasus…
The vibe is positive, optimistic, radiant, European.

@Samkharadze79 You are so nervous while speaking about it you barely can breathe. Because deep down you know that with these actions you are killing Georgia's democracy, welfare and European path. Shameful, shameful, shameful, have some courage and don't destroy our country.
@Samkharadze79 So, Georgia has threats emanating from Russian occupation and NGOs receiving funds from the West. And you are targeting Western funding (as your speaker said), such as from EED and NED and not the Russia-funded NGOs. EU is against the law, and Russia likes it. Illogical BS.
I think many are missing this subtlety *the most senior leaders in the United States* - that implies cabinet+ to me, though it could also be those in Congress.
Statement from Ambassador Dunnigan I am deeply concerned that in recent weeks the Georgian government’s choices have moved the country away from its Euro-Atlantic future, a destination desired by the overwhelming majority of Georgians. Unfortunately, the ruling party appears…
Talk about a paradox! Just two years back, the idea of French & German foreign ministers openly pushing Georgia's EU joining prospects felt like a fairy tale. Now? We're almost there to open accession talks, but guess who's pushing for acceleration? Yup, the EU members…
Sea of police behind the Parliament: all in an attempt to let MPs leave the building.
The police has occupied the rear entrance of the Parliament building
Russian Dream used rubber bullets.
Last but not least, long live free and independent 🇬🇪. You will NEVER be 🇷🇺!
Despite the ongoing government crackdown on PEACEFUL protesters, Georgians are not backing down! Instead, they’re stockpiling face masks, goggles, & helmets to defend themselves against tear gas and other forms of police brutality.
Last night, police used a disproportionate force to disperse peaceful protesters, using tear gas and beating and imprisoning protesters, including minors (!)
While the 🇪🇺 & 🇺🇸 have condemned GD’s decision to move forward with the bill, the Kremlin and Kremlin-linked Russian ideologues & propagandists have applauded GD’s moves. See, for instance, Dugin.
Why is this bill so controversial? GD claims the bill would foster “transparency” of foreign [read Western] funding that 🇬🇪 is receiving. FYI, there are several laws already in place in 🇬🇪 regulating that Western funding that 🇬🇪 is receiving is indeed transparent.
In early April, Georgia’s ruling party, the Georgian Dream (GD), announced their plans to adopt a highly controversial, Kremlin-inspired bill on “transparency of foreign influence.”
To everyone who’s still not quite sure what is happening in 🇬🇪 right now, and why the events unfolding on the ground are truly unprecedented, or why the struggles of the Georgian people should even matter to those in Western capitals, here’s a (belated) not-so-short recap 🧵
@HansGutbrod @DrKevorkO ... what he really means is he's back to pull everyone back into line after they got a little too cosy squabbling among themselves.
@HansGutbrod @DrKevorkO That said there's not necessarily cohesion among the lower ranks (e.g. the supposed beef between Kaladze's guys and the Garibashvili clan). You'll remember Ivanishvili's words when he 'returned' to politics in December – "I'm here to save my team from human temptation"....
@HansGutbrod @DrKevorkO Yes I'm inclined to agree, given it's an elite structured according single patronage network, so very much 'under' Ivanishvili would seem more fitting than 'around'.
Due to the seriousness of the situation, @Forthepeople61 announced a gathering of "independent" minds and forces, "independent" meaning non GD-non UNM.
Angry and important thread about ties between the Georgian government and Russia. I appreciate a scientific approach and keep saying myself we lack smoking guns for certain things. But given the mounting circumstantial evidence, please stop saying Russia plays no role.
