Police clashed with protesters in the Georgian capital early on Friday, November 29, after the country's ruling party announced it would suspend talks on European Union accession and refuse budgetary grants until 2028.
The Georgian Interior Ministry reported that three police officers were injured in the violence. Protesters, many masked, attempted to break into the parliament building, prompting police to issue dispersal orders. In an effort to control the crowds, officers used water cannons, pepper spray, and tear gas.
The protests were sparked by the government's decision to halt negotiations with the European Union, which comes amid growing concerns over Georgia’s relationship with the EU. Brussels has raised alarms in recent months, accusing the Georgian government of adopting pro-Russian positions and resorting to authoritarian measures.
This decision marks a significant shift in Georgia's approach to EU relations and has led to a deterioration in the country's ties with the bloc.
