  • サマリー

  • On the 28th May, the Georgian parliament overturned the presidential veto of the highly contentious ‘Foreign Agents’ law that had sparked weeks-long mass protests across the country and was strongly condemned by the international community. Should it come into force, any non-profit or media that receives over 20% of funding from overseas sources will have to register as “organisations acting in the interest of a foreign power” and face strict scrutiny from auditors and enormous fines.

    In this episode of Trouble with the Truth, Lana speaks with returning guest Mariam Nikuradze, a Georgia-based reporter and co-founder of OC media. They discuss how the bill will affect independent media in the country, why some journalists might have to consider exile and what’s it been like covering the protests on the ground. They also talk about the wider implications of the law- with parliamentary elections coming up in October 2024, the ‘Foreign Agents’ bill has the potential to dramatically alter the future of the country and crush the dreams of joining the EU, supported by 80% of Georgians.
