The Media Advocacy Coalition strongly condemns the persecution of journalists by members of the Public Broadcaster's Board of Trustees affiliated with the Georgian Dream.
Georgian Dream aims to obliterate free media and stifle freedom of expression
We stand in full support of the courageous journalists who continue their vital work of informing the public despite an incredibly hostile and dangerous environment

This law has drawn its name because it mirrors a proposal initially put forth by Putin in Russia, a scenario we refuse to emulate — a reality where critical voices are silenced, citizens are compliant, and their rights are neglected.
The documentary highlights the underlying motives and context surrounding the adoption of this law, examining why it is termed "Russian" and the dangers it presents to democratic processes.
