Feb. 27, 2021

Protesters set up tents outside Georgia’s parliament building and blocked the capital’s main avenue to oppose the arrest of the leader of the country’s main opposition party.

The demonstration came hours after police stormed the headquarters of the United National Movement and arrested its chairman, lawmaker Nika Melia.

The new Prime Minister, Irakli Garibashvili, said the politician’s arrest was justified.
