A civil protest march takes place on Sunday in Tbilisi. UNN reports with reference to NewsGeorgia.
In contrast to the actions of recent weeks, which were held by parties, today people were brought to the streets by the social platform დაიტოვე/ daitove, organizing the action through social networks.
This is one of the most active and largest social groups in the Georgian FB segment. It was created in the spring of this year, during the mass protests against the law on foreign agents, to help with transportation and free housing for those who came from the regions to support the actions.
Now there are more than 200 thousand people in "დაიტოვე", a large part of them are young people, but people of different ages came to the action.
დაიტოვე/ daitove called on everyone who wants to see Georgia as part of Europe to come out to the rally.
The demand is the same: to recognize the October 26 parliamentary elections as falsified and illegitimate and to appoint new elections under the supervision of a special international committee.
Recall
According to official data, the ruling Georgian Dream party won the parliamentary elections with almost 54% of the vote.
Both the oppositionand Georgian President Salome Zurabishvili do not recognize the legitimacy of the elections and talk about their falsification.
Since election day, large-scale protests against the election results have been regularly held in Tbilisi.
