TBILISI (Sputnik) - Georgian President Salome Zourabichvili said on Saturday that she vetoed the controversial foreign agents bill passed by the country's parliament earlier in May.
On Tuesday, the Georgian parliament adopted a bill on foreign agents by a majority vote in the third and final reading at a plenary meeting. The bill, if adopted, would require organizations to register as "pursuing the interests of a foreign power" if they get over 20% of their funding from abroad.
"I have vetoed the 'Russian' law. This law ... represents an obstacle on the European path. The veto is legally enforceable and will be passed to the parliament today. The law cannot be amended or improved in any way. This law must be repealed," Zourabichvili said during a briefing.
The law, which prompted a major standoff between political factions, aims to promote “transparency and accountability of relevant organizations vis-à-vis Georgian society," according to Tbilisi while protestors and some foreign politicians argue it is restrictive.

lol… a law in Georgia interferes with Europe? And a law requiring foreign funding of local NGOs is a “Russian” law? The CIA rap disliked this law. It was a weaker version of our own FARA law.
Guess we know who pays this guy.
Salome Zourabichvili is a globohomo hack.
This totally reasonable bill would have mandated organizations to disclose where they get their funding from, i.e. Soros or the Puppet Biden regime which wants to destabilize ALL countries that do not push and promote the degenerate homosexual agenda.
Notice how Zourabichvili claims it is a pro-Russia bill. Zourabichvili has been bought off. /spit
I was going to say, the check cleared!
President is a French woman with a long career in French foreign service as a diplomat. We sent her in and she was appointed into government. Now she’s yes last elected president. We engineered a system where future presidents will be chosen by a parliament hybrid system.
She’s deep in the EU/CIA sway.
Per Wikipedia...."She joined the French diplomatic service in the 1970s and over three decades went on to occupy a variety of increasingly senior diplomatic positions. From 2003 to 2004, she served as the Ambassador of France to Georgia. In 2004, by mutual agreement between the presidents of France and Georgia,[3] she accepted Georgian nationality and became the Foreign Minister of Georgia...."
This has Macron's fingerprints all over it.
Russia has already stolen 20% of Georgia’s territory and now their infiltrated proxy pro Russian mafioso-politicians there, want to force a Russian law down the Georgian people’s throats. 80 present of Georgians OPPOSE that KGB-Moscow-Commie law.
May conservatism win, and the Russian Neo-soviets and commies lose.
It’s always the French.
Georgia population: <4 million
Size: ~size Oklahoma
NGOs in Georgia: read it’s ~ 25k
Seems ridiculously high for a small country.
Bill would have required registration, if more than 20% of funding came from outside nation.
Seems reasonable.
Protests are likely Soros funded.
NGOs are the method through which CIA conducts funding and subversion operations around the globe. The advantages are 1) it avoids congressional oversight and prohibition on funding or particular operations and 2) it is (or was) excellent cover for operatives.
Countries all around the world are wise to this, and are kicking out foreign-funded NGOs.
By the same, the same process works just as well for influence operations in the USA also.
By vetoing this, the Georgian President has revealed exactly who she is.
The Empire demands that the little countries follow along how dare they pass a “foreign agents law”.
France needs to worry more about New Caledonia.
thx for damn straight illumination

Amazing.
“The froggie can’t even see that Frenchie Salome Zourabichvili is an EU stooge.”
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
What are you talking about?
Everyone knows she is for Europe and the EU. She just vetoed the mad KGB/NeoSoviet law that her NeoSoviet-infiltrated parliament sent her. Evidently she vetoed it. Good.
But it will only delay the process for a bout 2 weeks.
The Russian KGB (FSB) will end up pushing their Kremlin law anyway... against the will of 80% of the Georgian population.
I see you have the neoCON Talking Points down pat.
The proposed law is not as invasive as our own FARA law here in the US.
Of course, you being a froggie and an agent of The Ukraine, you wouldn't know that.
Away with your pap!
