Protesters in Tbilisi hold signs outside parliament, echoing the 2013 Maidan movement in Ukraine. However, unlike their Ukrainian counterparts, Georgian authorities show no signs of compromise. Nana Dvalishvili, a 55-year-old real estate agent, has joined thousands of protesters demanding change.
The protest highlights concerns over Georgia’s democratic transition. Dvalishvili attributes the government’s reluctance to engage with opposition to a pattern of past experiences: “It happens all the time.” She fears force and rallies have become a recurring cycle in her country’s history.
