#GeorgiaProtests

See more of my images from last year's protests in Tbilisi, Georgia ... look at this country, look at these people. #GeorgiaProtest tamarwhereareyou.com/lord-of-your...

Salome Zourabishvili interview in German newspaper @szde.bsky.social: "Ich sehe natürlich die Schwierigkeiten. Was ich aber auch sehe, ist, dass bei uns eine echte europäische Zivilgesellschaft entsteht. Deshalb kämpfen wir bis zum Ende." www.sueddeutsche.de/politik/geor...

Report about attacks on media workers in Georgia in 2023-2024 ...

Wonderful text by @gabritchidze.bsky.social @civil.ge about Georgian journalist Mzia Amaghlobeli, who ended her hunger strike but remains imprisoned, the impressive work of Georgian independent media, and the immense challenges the latter are facing. civil.ge/archives/663...

“Losing Georgia to the authoritarian axis would mark a major setback for the West in the South Caucasus region.” 👇🏻 www.wilsoncenter.org/article/turm...

Commitment and determination combined with a sense of unity and moments of joy left a strong impression on me during last year’s protests in Tbilisi. Still going strong, 84 days and counting … look at this country, look at these people. . . #georgiaprotests #georgiaterror

Rustaveli Avenue is blocked once again on day 84 of continuous protests. #GeorgiaProtests

#StandwithUkraine

Several unknown individuals have thrown eggs at Georgia’s self-declared interim President Salome Zourabichvili at Tbilisi International Airport upon her return to Georgia from the Munich Security Conference. oc-media.org/zourabichvil...

This is Mzia Gabeshia, a 74-year-old solo protester at Martvili City Hall who is there every day regardless of weather conditions. She says she is fighting for political prisoners, for justice, and for accountability. #GeorgiaProtests 📷 Salome Kinkladze

Freedom Equality Solidarity ✊🏼 Day 83 #GeorgiaProtests

„We will not surrender“ - it was the spirit last year in May, when I met this young man in Georgia’s capital Tbilisi. And it’s the spirit now, 80 days after the current wave of demonstrations began all over the country. Going strong … . #GeorgiaProtest #GeorgiaTerror #Georgia #Sakartvelo

"No to Russian Dictatorship!"-For the 80th day in a row, the people of Georgia have been relentlessly protesting in the streets of Tbilisi. The country's future is at stake.

80 days of relentless street protests in Georgia! The people are fighting for their European future. Europe, don’t look away—stand with Georgia! 🇬🇪🇪🇺 #GeorgiaProtests

🇬🇪: „A new social contract and a civic nation are being born.“ 💪👏🙏

#MSC2025: Zelenskyy is urging to create The United Arms of Europe, so decisions for Europe is made in Europe.

🇬🇪❤️🇺🇦

Today: #Georgia @munsecconf.bsky.social w/ Salome Zourabichvili & @tomdewaal.bsky.social Many other great panels over the weekend. #US, #Ukraine, #Syria but also #criticalminerals, #genderbacklash & other important issues that don't always make it to the top of the agenda. Link to livestream below.

🇺🇦 With ongoing discussions and even suggestions about conceding territory to Russia for peace, it’s crucial to revisit the historical lessons from the Munich Agreement of 1938. 🧵Let's explore the parallels and implications for Ukraine. #Ukraine #Russia #History 🇷🇺📜 1/25

Sowas kommt davon, wenn man die AfD und ihre Ideologie normalisiert und der Diskurs sich verschiebt. Dann fühlen sich die Gewalttäter ermutigt, den angeblichen "Volkswillen" zu vollstrecken. Aber ladet die Weidel nur weiter ein in die Talkshows und stimmt mit ihnen zusammen im Bundestag!!!

In 2 hs, the EP will vote on a draft resolution stating that Georgia’s self-proclaimed authorities have no legitimacy and calling for EU sanctions against Ivanishvili & inc. In the draft text, MEPs also recognize Salome Zourabichvili as Georgia’s legitimate president. Full reporting after the vote.

Day 77 …

🇪🇺 Make Europe Great Again! … and non-dependent on U.S. swing states.

🇺🇸This is Putins way of telling how weak he thinks the US are right now.

"As long as #GeorgiaProtests continue, they cannot act as if Georgia does not exist. Turning a blind eye is impossible. Before the protest began, no one was talking about sanctions or other concrete measures. Now? Now we have sanctions from the US. We are also seeing certain sanctions from EU MSs.

Petition for Mzia Amaghlobeli. It's day 31 of her hunger strike. "For over two decades, she has fought for press freedom, democracy, and Georgia’s European future. Now, she sits in pre-trial detention, risking her life for the same values she has always defended." www.change.org/p/mzia-amagh...

My vocabulary in the post below was inspired by Professor Levan Ghambashidze who said: “the Georgian culture will vomit out the Georgian Dream.” Indeed: the Georgian culture will not erase, kill, digest, overcome, or defeat the Georgian Dream. It will vomit it out.

Georgian investigative journalism media Studio Monitori set up a petition demanding d the immediate release of Mzia Amaghlobeli, a journalist, Ivanishvili's prisoner of consicence who's on a hunger strike for a month now. The world must not stay silent. www.change.org/p/mzia-amagh...

The police left the protest site in front of the Parliament building on Rustaveli Avenue. #GeorgiaProtests Day 75

Even the protesters blocking Rustaveli for 3 hours a day is unacceptable to GD. 75 days of continuous protest is no small amount. The Ivanishvili regime must fall. No justice, No peace. Burn the Oligarchy.

On the 74th consecutive day of #GeorgiaProtests, Tbilisi’s central Rustaveli Avenue is blocked once again. This happens amid the regime’s third repressive wave of attempts to suppress nationwide protests. Video: @publikage.bsky.social

How low can you go @euronews.com? But I guess you can‘t expect anything else from a news outlet lead by a former editor of Germany‘s worst/populist paper?

Und heute: Demo für Europa, Demokratie, Unterstützung der Ukraine … #europa #demokratie #niewiederistjetzt #ukraineunterstützen #slavaukraini #kiel #schleswig_holstein #fckafd

Gestern: sehr interessante Veranstaltung mit Robert Habeck im Studio Filmtheater in Kiel. #roberthabeck #teamrobert #diegruenen #bundestagswahl2025 #weilswichtigist #zukunft #habeckforkanzler @robert-habeck.de

Georgian people: 👇🏻👇🏻 • An overwhelming majority of respondents support Georgia’s European integration — 86.3% • Support for NATO integration - 74.2% • 80% oppose Georgia's integration into the collective security organization created by Russia. #StandWithGeorgianPEOPLE x.com/jamnewscauca...

Fundraiser relaunched to support independent media outlets in Georgia. Help if you can …

A photo from tonight, day 73 non-stop. We want free and fair elections for four reasons: electoral fraud, a U-turn in foreign policy, systemic torture of protesters, and endless crisis that will only deepen. And the release of the political prisoners. #GeorgiaProtests

Cell 101: Zviad Tsetskhladze, a 19-year-old prisoner of the regime, published a newspaper from prison with the help of his friends. #GeorgiaProtests

🇬🇪Western diplomats must recognize a hard truth: any symbolic recognition—whether intentional or not—emboldens the Georgian Dream (GD) regime. 🧵Recent missteps show how GD exploits these moments to fake legitimacy while doubling down on repression. 1/10
