In recent days, a new policy of sanctions against the Georgian authorities has been announced, although personal ones have not yet been named. It is also planned to introduce visa restrictions that threaten those who supported the promotion of the law on foreign agents. This was announced by US State Department spokesman Matthew Miller.

Earlier, a message appeared on the website of the US State Department about the review of all areas of cooperation with Georgia. The statement also talks about the introduction of visa restrictions for former and current politicians and security officials involved in the adoption of the law on foreign agents and who took part in the dispersal of peaceful protests.

MP from the opposition Eurooptimists party Khatia Dekanoidze said that family members of some representatives of the Georgian Dream party have already been notified of the cancellation of visas to the United States.

On May 14, despite mass protests and calls from foreign partners, the Georgian parliament adopted a law on foreign agents. On May 18, the country's President Salome Zurabishvili vetoed it, calling it a “Russian law.” However, Georgian Dream soon overcame the presidential ban.

The new law provides for registration in a special register for NGOs and media that receive more than 20% of their income from abroad.
