Georgians are protesting outside parliament against reading of ‘foreign influence’ bill
People in Georgia have been protesting outside parliament – which is holding a third and potentially final discussion of a controversial ‘Foreign Influence’ bill.
Opponents say the proposed law could be used to stifle dissent.
Media and other organisations that get 20% or more of their funding from abroad, would have to register as agents of foreign influence.
There are reports of at least twenty arrests on Saturday.
Al Jazeera’s Dmitry Medvedenko has more on the protest from the Georgian capital, Tbilisi.
