66 people were detained during the protests in Georgia

According to the local Ministry of Internal Affairs, about 50 employees of the department were injured. Several of them required surgery. Demonstrators in Tbilisi damaged cars, special equipment, set fire to the Parliament building, broke windows and broke security fences.
The situation escalated yesterday after the first reading of the Foreign Agents Bill. The West and the opposition argue that he is obstructing Georgia’s EU integration.
According to the draft law, the country will have a register of agents of foreign influence - legal entities or media that are more than 20% financed from abroad. According to the head of European diplomacy Josep Borrel, the document contradicts the country’s desire to join the EU.
Georgian President Salome Zurabishvili recorded a video against the background of the Statue of Freedom in the USA (the Head of State is there on a visit), promised to veto the law on foreign agents and stated that «those who voted for this law violate the Constitution».
