Georgia Jails Opposition Leaders in Democracy Crackdown | JQJO

Georgia has jailed six prominent opposition figures in a week, sparking international condemnation. This crackdown, described as an unprecedented attack on democracy, follows disputed elections and the government's halting of Georgia's EU accession bid. The jailed politicians refused to testify before a parliamentary commission, leading to accusations of a politically motivated purge. International observers and human rights groups denounce the actions, highlighting concerns about political prisoners and the erosion of democratic norms. Protests continue in Tbilisi.
