Cases of denial of re-entry into Georgia to Russian political activists and human rights defenders who have been living in this country since the beginning of the SVO are causing increasing concern. This was stated by the director of the Free Russia Foundation in the South Caucasus, Egor Kuroptev.
According to the head of the organization, such actions by the Georgian authorities can be regarded not only as a violation of the rights of people persecuted for political reasons, but also as pressure on any people and groups “who do not share the aggressive policy of the Kremlin and take any action in this regard "
According to Kuroptev, just last week two people faced refusals. In both cases, while waiting for a return flight, police at Georgian airports confiscated the activists' communications equipment.
