Description
The United States welcomes the Georgian government's dropping of a bill that was reminiscent of Russian legislation used to silence critics and which had sparked major protests, but called for its complete withdrawal. "While we welcome the decision to withdraw the draft law on 'foreign influence,' we urge the ruling party to officially retract this bill and not to further this type of legislation, precisely because it's incompatible with Georgian and Euro-Atlantic values," State Department spokesperson Ned Price tells reporters at his last briefing.
