i, i'm eddie mike, a junior and you welcome to the program. mass protest have now inside the fed consecutive week in the country of georgia. the protest i aimed at the government bill, which critics argue, will crack down on the media and threatens judges on visions of joining the loop you in union. the new in the us up at georgia to draw the legislation housings of people in georgia. i have been taking to the streets for weeks to testing a bill that could touch and media freedom. crowds oppose was a score the foreign agents bill, which would require immediate non profits to register as working for a foreign power. if they get more than 20 percent of their funding from abroad, the so the motivation behind the decision to reintroduce the lower despite the problem is that it would not have been is clearly rushed and style even before examining the law. it's else the that's

what many here are calling it the solar russian law. that's because moscow use a similar legislation, declared press freedom and silence critics of the kremlin georgian presidents, them is what a beast really opposes the bill and don't be w. she would not let it pass as it be, will georgia's plans of joining the you. so this low is pretty sorry by everyone. and it's criticized by your 10 factors by our american partners. that say that this will be an obstacle to the european tasks of georgia when we are expecting by the end of the year to get to the possibility to open negotiations for georgia entry and to the european union. while the president in western partners have opposed the law, georgia's prime minister has dismissed their criticism. he says their interference,

as in fact, accelerated violence. dw correspondent maria customize the joins us from tipping. easy. hello mary. yes. so joe, just prime ministers in favor of the bill, but the precedent is like against it. why is that such a division inside the government's of the concrete instability see arise next to the apartment gates where the tensions have been very, very high. in the recent past 2 weeks, when the protests and protests have been coming out on the streets. indeed, it represents the, the polarization and the georgia society and confrontation between the government and the president. the president is seen as someone who is citing with the protest this as a pro western leader who's trying to uh to make it easier for georgia to become a human. but she is criticizing a very harshly the government. she even calls them pro russian government. she says

that they are actually implementing russian style policies. and the government says that each see or is that there will be another war in georgia. it accuses the west that the west is floating in governments. you the revolution here in georgia. so you can see here the confrontation and the polarization of between the pro wesson and pro democracy forces. and the government was trying to strike the balance as they, as the claimant's. um you said, cause right? so the so protest having going on for weeks now. so we know that there are a lot of people that oppose this bill quarterly. the ration low as you say about how is the bill viewed by george's weston partners to the west has criticized very severely at least the sofa for an agent's bill. for

instance, the heart of your commission of or so if on the line side that she's watching closely the development of the country. and she said that at george's future using europe. uh, the state department issued a statement saying that the watson trajectory of georgia is its risk from what we gather here in please see the government says that actually again accuses the boss of the, of interfering in domestic politics. saying that the ideas that are funding from brussels in washington are floating revolution here, but people here uh on the streets of to b. c. they say that they don't believe the government. they say that the government is doing everything to stop them from joining the the campaign for the countries elections as planned for up to by it's, it's, it's, it's fully on the way, how could all this impacts the electro process?

many observers say that the ex over elections kilometer elections, they are going to be crucial for the, for the georgia direction. we can see that the current government is, is increasingly uh, anti watson at least if we look at the rectory. but the opposition is also very fragmented at this point. so it's, it's going to be very interesting to watch whether the current government will manage to retain the power the bill will actually be in the place. or maybe they are turn to forces will take over a manual position. politicians here are telling me that if they come to power, for instance, the bill will be canceled. also what's important to consider that these fail, i, as critics say, is going to undermine the election. what stocks here in georgia and they steering that? and that's why they fearing that if the a for an aging bill comes into force,

that's going to undermine the elections here as well. right? use of mary. i've got some of the integral, easy. thank you. now canadian police, how the rest, the 3 men over the middle of the seek separatist and vancouver that was last june investigators that the also probing possible ties between the suspects and the indian government. that he had no immediate response to the arrest. but hospital mines denied involvement. the canning house become the center of a diplomatic spots between canada and india. 10 months after hardy seeing the jars killing canadian police have their main suspects. 3 indian nationals living in canada, a beneficial say they're still looking for others who might be involved in the murder, including agents of the indian government. and we'll underscore that today's announcements are not
