Details
At least four attacks on activists and opposition members opposing the law on "foreign agents" were committed in Tbilisi over the past day. At the same time, Georgian Justice Minister Rati Bregadze suggested that the attacks on activists protesting the law on foreign agents were carried out by the activists themselves.
I don't even know if anyone beat themselves or if anyone else physically abused them... Why do you insist that anyone was physically abused by a government supporter or anyone else? If anyone can organize such riots, it is, of course, the people who are behind these rallies and who are organizing a powerful protest in the country
