The Georgian resistance is so profoundly transgenerational. It's bittersweet.

This decision stems from the wrong assumption that the Georgian Dream is a transactional autocracy which could be influenced back into the EU orbit if the EU engages with them.
It is wrong, and only enables the Kremlin branch in Georgia more.

You know what detained Georgian protesters do right upon release?
They go back to the protests that same day.
Sopo Markozia is one of such people.

At least 5 people were arbitrarily detained this evening for just protesting - not even “closing the road,” as their argument had it a few weeks ago.
Student Luka Khizadze is one of those detained - for the second time in 4 days.

Yesterday, top regime propaganda media outlet, TV Imedi, had a sweeping attack on any and all independent media and CSO.
Their turn for a total crackdown is approaching, I guess…
And we still here “sorry, we don’t know how to channel the funds” from our partners…

On this day 22 years ago, the Rose Revolution happened in Georgia.
Its ideals of a modernized state and building European democracy clashed with the (post-)Soviet corrupt and crony elites, who had their revenge in 2012 through installing the Georgian Dream, now the dictatorship in Georgia.

Two days ago, the regime police in Georgia arrested a man over squeaking a chicken toy towards the police.
So, yesterday, many people brought these chickens to do the same.

Oh, really? Why didn't it want peace in 2022?
Because Russia only asks for "peace" when it gets its snout beaten.

Please just watch this. Protesters simply march through a narrow street, and the regime police rushes in to abduct Mariam Mekantsishvili, a young single mother. Simply for protesting.

13+ protesters were arbitrarily arrested this evening. I’m not even sure what the “formal reason” was.
