Georgia's President vetoes controversial 'Russian law' amid ongoing protests, as critics argue it resembles Kremlin legislation to silence opponents and hinder EU aspirations. The law requires media organizations receiving over 20% funding from abroad to register as 'pursuing the interests of a foreign power.' The ruling party has the majority to override the veto, while protesters fear it restricts press freedom and democratic rights. The EU and US express concerns about the law's impact on Georgia's integration efforts. #Georgia #Protests #PressFreedom #EU...
