Despite the statement of the ruling party "Georgian Dream" to withdraw from parliament the scandalous bill on "foreign agents", its opponents intend to gather again at a protest in the center of Tbilisi on Thursday and rally until Georgia takes a "guaranteed pro-Western course".
Tsotne Koberidze, a member of the "Girchi - More Freedom" party, stated this at a briefing, reports "Evropeyska Pravda" with reference to the SOVA publication.
According to Koberidze, the rally will begin at 7:00 p.m. on Rustaveli Avenue.
Demonstrators demand clarity from the authorities as to how exactly it plans to withdraw the bill "On Agents of Foreign Influence", as well as the immediate release of all detained protesters.
"There will definitely be an action today! There are many young people who do not trust the "Georgian Dream" and believe that we are the guarantor of the country's rapprochement with the West," Koberidze said.
According to him, the protests will not stop until Georgia takes a "guaranteed pro-Western course".
"We do not believe the Russian dream (the ruling party "Georgian dream". - Ed.) at their word, because they repeatedly "abandoned" our society. Therefore, it is important to do things, not make promises. This cannot be considered an achieved victory, especially on against the background of the fact that dozens of young people have been arrested, and the whereabouts of many are unknown. All of them should be released. Our protest wave and struggle will not stop until the European perspective of Georgia is guaranteed," "Pershiy Kanal" quotes the words of a deputy of the opposition "National Movement" Iraklia Favlenishvili.
After violent protests on March 7 and 8, the ruling party of Georgia announced that it had decided to withdraw the scandalous bill on "foreign agents".
As reported, during the two days of protests in Tbilisi, officers of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Georgia detained 134 people.
