Demonstrators Block All Entrances to Parliament

All entrances to the Parliament have been blocked. Leaders of opposition party European Georgia have recently locked the gates at the entrance to the building, saying that the key of the padlock will be given to the people as a sign that they locked the building.

Protesters and opposition leaders are putting up tents near the picketed entrances to the Parliament.

One of the leaders of European Georgia Gigi Ugulava said that there will be 5 tents.

“Tents will be here for 24 hours. Members of the Georgian Dream will not be able to enter the building,” he claimed.

Protests and speeches continue in front of the Parliament regarding the rejection of the electoral bill aimed to move from a mixed electoral system to a proportional one. 

People have been blocking Rustaveli Avenue for several days now, demanding snap proportional elections conducted by an interim government.
