Georgia's President Salome Zourabichvili sees future of Europe at stake with divisive law | DW News

- Опубликовано: 2 май 2024
- Thousands of people in Georgia have been taking to the streets for weeks, protesting a bill that could threaten media freedom - and even derail the country's hopes of joining the European Union. Protesters oppose what many have dubbed a "Russian law" - as Moscow uses similar legislation to curb independent news organisations and groups critical of the Kremlin. The European Union and the United States have urged Georgia to drop the legislation. But the country's prime minister has rejected US criticism, saying its meddling has fueled the sometimes-violent protests. DW spoke to Salome Zourabichvili, the President of Georgia, who says the problem is not just the Russian law itself, but the pro-Russian stance of Georgia’s current government.

@@margaret-yr6uh they would be in partnership with the EU, as opposed to being just another puppet state like Belarus.
@@margaret-yr6uh Part of being independent is getting to chose your own allies. All EU member states are independent, because they joined the union out of their own free will, and they can leave whenever they want to (like UK did). Honestly, it is not rocket science to understand this. On the other hand, writting domestic law in Georgia by Moscow's dictate is NOT independence.
@@flopoz2575@flopoz2575 Moscow will continue to exert its influence until the people stand up to it. The Russian government has a history of using authoritarian tactics rather than peaceful negotiations.
@@margaret-yr6uh Why UK left is up to the people of UK. The important part is, they had the right to do it and no one in Brussles stopped them, which proves my point. On a side note I would add, that every single opinion poll in Britian today, shows that majority of voters think leaveing the EU was a mistake (in February 2024 55% of respondents said Britian was wrong to leave, against 34% saying leaving was the right decision), but they made their choice and now they have to live with it.
Supporting Georgia's people and president! 🇪🇺🇬🇪🇸🇰✌️
I've yet to see a single argument why requiring NGOs to register where their money comes from is "pro-Russian". If these orgs are so pro-democracy, then surely it isn't a problem to reveal why transparency is a bad thing?
US has the same law. Then only Russia created such law. In India we are also controling foreign NGOs.
@@picklethepirate Pro-Russian trolls are always wilfully obtuse.
@@Awibrahor Okay, so prove it to the world! This is your chance to show me, an American who is somehow 'pro-Russian', why NGOs being required to disclose where their funding comes from is anti-democratic. Please, inform me!

President Salome is a beacon of freedom and democracy in Georgia, uncompromised, uncorrupted, courageous. Respect from Ireland. May she stay safe.
She is a puppet of the EU. And DW is lying, the same law exists in the US.
No she isn't. Cause when 2/3ds of parliament decide for something it means the greatest majority of the PEOPLE wants it to happen. Cause this is democracy. What Salome does is DESPOTISM and is AGAINST DEMOCRACY. Also it's not a bad policy anyway to be VISIBLE these various "non profitable" organizations where are they getting funded from. Cause quite often behind those organizations are secret services of other countries hiding behind that do their machinations through these organizations against other states.
Did you know btw that USA has already such a law in place from 1935? Why USA is ok to have it and the other countries not? You and your DOUBLE STANDARDS, you HYPOCRITES!

🙏Guys as a Georgian 🇬🇪 - Thanks for your support, Your opinion and support is more than important to us❤️❤️🔥
Could you please explain to me how is this law pro Russian? NGOs and media that receive at least 20% funding from abroad need to register as peddling foreign influence . That would mean that those receiving funding from Russia would have to register as well. At least that is my understanding.
I am from a small country and I don't want no foreign influence in our media. Be it Russian, American or anyone else's.
Georgia has gorgeous nature and great food! Peace and prosperity for Georgia!
Their traditional dances are magnificent also, graceful, athletic. The strength required for the men's dances is unbelievable.
They keep saying "The Russian Law", but never tell us what this law says.
How i understand, law is same as any other countries just difference is EU and US does not consider each other's money as foreigner influence. But Georgia consider all foreigner money as outside influence.
Which I think is not bad law, but problem is law is not well defined and gives to much strength one aide of group in this case government.
MULTIPOLAR is the core of the law

Don’t give up
Thanks mate

God bless this woman, stay strong Georgian protestors! The advantage of parliamentary democracies!
Democracy not work in US, Democracy its war...
So you consider a good thing if secret services of foreign countries operate and undermine other states through these NGO organisations which are being funded by them so that they can operate under that veil? Cause this is what happens with most NGOs. Time to wake up IGNORANT!

Unfortunately they only need 76 votes out of 150 to override the veto. They have at least 83 :( its on us, the population only and the young generation is very angry
@@mariamivanidze9116It’s kind of strange that a veto can be overridden by a simple majority, but I looked it up and it’s true. I suppose the President can still use her veto power to show the people what she would do were she to become the Prime Minister, so there’s that, I guess…
@@mariamivanidze9116 I've been trying to understand how requiring NGOs to disclose where they get their funding from is a bad thing. No one is willing to explain why transparency is suddenly 'pro-Russian'. If you're from Georgia, can you tell me why you are opposed to knowing if a foreign country is funding an organization?
@@picklethepirateit is easy to understand why it is a bad law , labeling unwanted organizations is the first step to adapt other laws not permitting those organizations to be part of social and political life of the country ( to shut them up ). Russia did demonstrate that, don’t be blind !
@@borisponomarev6504 someone else explained to me how Georgia already has a law requiring NGOs to disclose their financial info, so I can see why people are suspicious of a new law thaf ostensibly does the same thing. However, I'm very suspicious of Western NGOs, given their track record of interfering with foreign governments who aren't willing to subscribe to their worldview (and to populations that vote 'incorrectly' - like Chile or Brazil during the Cold War).

The thing is, she didnt have a veto against parliament in the Georgian constitution, that will mean a tyrant or dictatorship. She can only refuse to sign for a while and send it back for revision but even that got limits. Her tenure is also not long anymore so the next president would have to sign it if she daddle.

Respect to Georgian people. ✊And this president can’t even release Saakachvili, not sure she can do anything… 🥴
she has the power to veto as president.
Although it's an utter disgrace to have the president imprisoned, Saakashvili was a bloody tyrant and most Georgians don't think he deserves to be released. The main reason why such an awful party (meaning the Georgian Dream) was elected for the third time in a row was a Georgian's fear of returning Saakashvili's regime.
