Everyone knows that the "leaderless protests" in Georgia are led by the US State Department and its cutouts.

The idea of 'leaderless protests' is entirely suspect in any case. It's code for, Don't Look At The Man Behind The Curtain.

a short piece 'diving into Georgia' in the present tense for those who are unfamiliar. All best and I hope a few readers troop over to you. James

This is great. This level of detail, and the comparison with Serbia, are really helpful.

Thank you for writing this, Sopo. It really helped me in understand this and why I couldn't understand what the protests were about, in their essence. And thank you for pouting out that the EU had ALREADY halted a talks. From my POV in the EU, it seems that Georgia will never be voted in as a member state, it will always just be a carrot at the end of the stick for Georgians to chase while Europe uses the country for strategic purposes. The EU is the death of culture, it represents globalism, severe regulations that negatively impact regular people, our health, and ability to survive.
