SHOCKING moment riot police turn water cannons and tear gas on protesters in the second consecutive day of demonstrations in Tbilisi, Georgia.
Police used tear gas against protesters during a demonstration against a so-called “foreign agent” bill in Tbilisi, Georgia, on Wednesday, March 8, with Georgia’s ruling party announcing the following morning it would withdraw the bill.
According to a statement on its website, cited by RFE’s Georgian service, the Georgian Dream party said it had “decided to unconditionally withdraw this bill that we supported”.
A joint statement posted by Georgian Dream’s coalition partners, People’s Power, said a “machine of lies” had misled the public about the bill, according to a machine translation.
