After Another Sham Election in Georgia, the Country’s Citizens Persist

Georgians will fight for their democracy. The ruling party is now one more paranoid, insecure dictatorship that knows its days are numbered.

Once again, Europe fails to defend its own values. The EU’s & its member states timid response to Georgia’s sham elections emboldens the Kremlin and disheartens the brave Georgians fighting for freedom. Europe needs courage, not complacency. #StandWithGeorgia 🇬🇪 🇪🇺
