"Violent Brawl Erupts in Georgian Parliament Over 'Foreign Agent' Law"

Georgian lawmakers engaged in a physical altercation in parliament as the ruling party pushed forward a controversial bill on "foreign agents", prompting protests and criticism from Western countries. The bill, which would require organizations receiving foreign funds to register as foreign agents or face fines, has strained relations with the EU and the US. The ruling party argues that the legislation is necessary to combat foreign influence and promote transparency, while critics have likened it to Russian laws suppressing dissent. The incident comes amid ongoing tensions over Georgia's ties with Russia and its aspirations to join the EU and NATO.
