Trump thinks he humiliated Zelensky. He humiliated the United States of America. And he made the world a much more dangerous place. Mob boss foreign policy will not work. The Trump-Putin axis fully came out of the closet today.

On the day of russian invasion of Ukraine, 3 years ago, a big march of support is going on in Tbilisi. It started from the Ukrainian embassy and is moving towards the daily protest location infront of the parliament. On the way, people stopped at the Taras Shevchenko statue. 🇺🇦🇬🇪

The problem with that is, that all sizable parties don’t really seem to have a clear political compass. It mostly feels like plain populism, packaged in different flavours. Plus, the right vs left culture war was imported before a defined right/left could even be formed…

1. Possibility growing by the day, as illegitimate govt. is constricting almost completely freedom of expression and assembly. 2. Yes 3. Keeping up pressure by not recognising GD, sanctions, more sanctions - the rest is our mess to clean up.

Georgia's self-proclaimed government, the Georgian Dream Party, is illegitimate. In a resolution, MEPs called on the international community to join the boycott of the self-proclaimed authorities, who they accuse of eroding the country’s democracy & cracking down on dissents.

Georgia is being Stalinized. If it becomes a second Belarus, that would be a huge and unaffordable blow to Europe. My interview for @ipnEng: www.interpressnews.ge/en/article/1...

Sorry for my french but these fuckers are all in. Hans is a great person and friend of Georgia, who if you’d know him? never even harmed a fly. Marches won’t solve anything - the only way forward seems to be the violent one.

Today, more than ever before, dozens of protesters and some journalists among them are getting calls or visits from the police notifying them about being fined "for blocking road" on Rustaveli. The amount of fine is USD 1,770 now.

After over 14km, the march from the city entrance finally made it to Rustaveli Avenue, which was already closed down by other protesters shortly before. I’m proud of my people. It’s not an easy fight - as those that are worth fighting aren’t. But we have shown grit and tenacity. And we’ll prevail!

Several kilometers further, along Tbilisis main river, arrests were renewed. One of the arrested is former director of Georgia’s National Bank, Giorgi Kadagidze. (Vid not mine)

As the long march began, spirits remained high, with songs, shouts and whistles (here the traditional anti-GD hymn). With us were kids and elderly. Police were following along, not letting us fully close the highway.

Sandro 🇬🇪 @sandrog.bsky.social · 02/02/2025
As the police pushed back and their numbers became overwhelming, protesters decided to move to the parallel highway, which leads towards the city center.

Sandro 🇬🇪 @sandrog.bsky.social · 02/02/2025
As the situation started to heat up even more, a black SUV arrived, carrying internationally sanctioned GD ‘strongman’ Zviad Kharazishvili. Scuffles broke out soon and arrests intensified. Footage emerged later with him personally beating arrested and cuffed prosters. So much for ‘strong’…

Among the first to be arrested was opposition leader Nika Melia, who had his clothes torn off in the process

As more and more protesters arrived and pushing further ahead, the OMON style special forces got their orders and started to arrest people.

Sandro 🇬🇪 @sandrog.bsky.social · 02/02/2025
Seemingly in full panic mode, the illegitimate govt. adopted harsh laws 1 day before, declaring this highway ‘strategic’ with prison sentences for anyone trying to block it. The situation started to heat up when a grp of people pushed forward to try and block it a bit further down.

Sandro 🇬🇪 @sandrog.bsky.social · 02/02/2025
Gathering location was a mall at the city entrance, where I arrived around 5pm. Spirits were high and people were flooding in. Though the police presence was already massive and unprecedented. It seems they were shipped in from all over the country.

Today was an emotionally and physically taxing day with protesters deciding to try and block the main artery connecting Tbilisi to western Georgian and it’s northern border. Didn’t manage to post earlier as I just got home, so here’s a quick 🧵 for those interested

The brutal crackdown on peaceful protesters, journalists and politicians tonight in Tbilisi is unacceptable. Georgia falls short of any expectation from a candidate country. The EU stands with the people of Georgia in their fight for freedom and democracy.

One of the best Georgian fighters, Kakha Tilidze, fell in the war with the Russians. For his significant contribution to strengthening & protecting national security, he was awarded (posthumously) the highest award of the MIU of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine. Glory to the heroes!

When a government is morphing openly and brazenly into a full blown dictatorship, restricting freedom of speech, physically assaulting kids, women and elderly and detaining critical voices - the response from the people will only be one:

Sanctions against the Georgian Dream regime pillars, including their economic tentacles, is due as soon as possible. It might be too late in a couple of months, considering the very rapidly consolidating dynamic of the dictatorship.

For 32 days, the Georgian people have faced down regime violence to fight for fair elections & a future away from Russia and with the EU. Every democracy globally needs to publicly state that we have their backs. The Russian state is the world’s foremost terrorist. Georgia’s fight is our fight.

Tomorrow is an important date in Georgia, when president Zourabishvili’s term officially runs out. Today however, was no less important, as we formed an endless chain of people along the river bank in Tbilisi, in protest against stolen election and freedom for prisoners of the regime
