We remain deeply concerned that this draft legislation would harm civil society organizations working to improve the lives of Georgian citizens and would derail Georgia from its European path. Such a comment made the Spokesperson for the US Department of State, while answering the question of the journalist.

“We are also concerned that this draft legislation would impede independent media organizations working to provide access for Georgian citizens to high-quality information.

But because this remains draft legislation, I’m going to sort of leave it there today and not talk about any implications should it actually be passed into law”, - said Matthew Miller.
