Georgian Parliament overrides President’s veto on Foreign Agents law, adopts the Agents’ law-PHOTO

 

On May 28, at 7 p.m., the ruling Georgian Dream majority overrode the president’s veto on the foreign agents’ law with 66 votes in favor and 0 against, Paralel.Az reports citing Civil.ge.

The law was subsequently voted for with 84 votes in favor and 4 against, meaning that it’s only a matter of days before the widely opposed bill is signed into law. Most of the opposition MPs had left the Parliament building to join the protesters prior to the voting.
