The British Foreign Secretary called the Georgian law on foreign agents authoritarian

Many countries around the world are passing laws similar to the initiative of the Georgian authorities. This is a global problem typical of authoritarian regimes. This opinion was shared by British Foreign Minister David Cameron.

“We actively support the Georgian people. We have made it clear that this bill is wrong. In fact, many countries around the world are passing similar laws in an attempt to restrict civil society and to target any foreign NGOs or charities that they do not control,” Cameron told Sky News.

Meanwhile, in Georgia, students from 30 educational institutions went on strike against the adoption of the law on foreign agents. A protest also continues in Tbilisi. Opposition politicians meet with visiting European colleagues. The chairmen of the Foreign Relations Committee of Germany, Poland, the Czech Republic, Lithuania and Estonia are in the capital of Georgia on an official visit.
