Georgia Enacts Controversial 'Foreign Agent' Law Amid Protests

Georgian opposition parties are forming a "pro-European" coalition in response to the government's controversial "foreign influence" law, which mandates organizations receiving over 20% of their funding from abroad to register as "agents of foreign influence." Critics argue the law hinders Georgia's EU ambitions and aligns the country closer to Russia, sparking massive protests and international condemnation. The opposition plans to revoke the law and implement reforms if they win the upcoming parliamentary elections.
