Protests in Georgia over EU talks have entered their sixth day, resulting in 300 arrests and dozens of injuries. Prime Minister Irakli Kobakhidze labeled the unrest as an attempt to spark a revolution.
Tensions in Georgia continue to rise as protests against the suspension of European Union accession talks enter their sixth day. Thousands of demonstrators have gathered outside the parliament building in Tbilisi, calling on the government to resume negotiations for EU membership.
Clashes between protesters and riot police have intensified, with fireworks and laser beams being used against law enforcement, who responded with tear gas and water cannons. The unrest has resulted in 298 arrests and left 143 police officers injured, according to Georgia’s Deputy Interior Minister.
Prime Minister Irakli Kobakhidze defended the police response, dismissing the protests as an attempt to incite a revolution similar to Ukraine’s 2014 Maidan uprising.
He stated, "The attempt to organize the Maidan in Georgia is already over. I would call everybody to keep quiet, let’s say, and to keep peace in this country. We are responsible for that, and I can assure everybody that there will be peace in this country."
The demonstrations erupted following the government’s controversial decision to suspend EU accession talks and decline financial aid from the bloc until 2028. The move has frustrated many Georgians, who view EU membership as vital for the country’s democratic and economic future.
As protests continue across the capital and other cities, Georgia faces mounting pressure to address citizens' demands and navigate a challenging path toward European integration.
