Seems someone is trying to stage a new kind of Maidan, this time in Georgia.

The Georgian parliament has passed a foreign agent law that would enforce transparency for foreign organizations (NGO's, foundations etc.) active in Georgia, forcing them to disclose how much money they give to whom, and for what purpose.

One might think that is a very Western idea, something welcome, you know, transparency etc. But no, the EU is threatening Georgia to abandon that law because it contradicts the EU values of democracy etc. And that although it was passed by a huge majority in parliament.

There are like 1000 radicals in front of the Georgian parliament, throwing Molotov cocktails at the police, threatening to storm parliament. The Georgian president (who might herself be considered a foreign agent since she was born in France) already said she supports the radical protesters and she would veto the bill.

Seems that they are afraid that everyone will know that Georgia is subject to severe foreign meddling in its internal affairs by Western fake NGO's such as the NED and the EED, which violates international law.



In Moldova the rogue government is also trying to weaken parliament by getting rid of opposition parties, locking up opposition leaders etc. The same process as in Ukraine.

Pentagon Blocks Sharing Evidence of Possible Russian War Crimes With Hague Court

The Pentagon is blocking the Biden administration from sharing evidence with the International Criminal Court in The Hague gathered by American intelligence agencies about Russian atrocities in Ukraine, according to current and former officials briefed on the matter.

American military leaders oppose helping the court investigate Russians because they fear setting a precedent that might help pave the way for it to prosecute Americans.

The information reportedly includes material about decisions by Russian officials to deliberately target civilian infrastructure and to abduct thousands of Ukrainian children from occupied territory.

They are lying anyway. Russia does not target civilian infrastructure, but double-use and military infrastructure.

Nor have children been abducted.

But they are right in that the US would spend the next 50 years in The Hague if American criminals were prosecuted.

I REALLY get tired of you people displaying your Trump Derangement Syndrome on every thread. There have to be 20 or 30 dedicated to TDS already.

This is about the Ukraine war.

Putin Derangement Syndrome is acceptable here. The rest of you should seek mental help.
