Georgia Parliament Enacts Controversial Foreign Agents Law

Georgian lawmakers have overridden a presidential veto to pass a controversial "foreign agents" law, similar to Russia's, which mandates that media and NGOs disclose foreign funding. The move has sparked large protests and international condemnation, with critics arguing it jeopardizes Georgia's EU aspirations and aligns the country closer to Russia. The U.S., EU, NATO, and UN have all expressed concerns, and the law's passage may force a reassessment of Georgia's international relationships.
