🇬🇪✊ Thousands of people are protesting in Tbilisi.
People again, like a few days ago, gathered on Rustaveli Avenue near the Parliament. There are a little less participants than last time, but still a lot, and the mood is angrier and the mood is more serious. There are many flags of Georgia, EU, Ukraine in the crowd. General disappointment after being denied EU candidate status. The President of Ukraine Zelensky addressed the audience with a speech and thanked the Georgian people.
The crowd includes politicians, students, many young people, representatives of different ages and professions.
❗️A call is heard from the rostrum for the resignation of the government and Prime Minister Garibashvili. The participants put forward this demand and report that if it is not met before July 3, massive and indefinite actions of disobedience will begin in the country.

🇬🇪❤️🇺🇦 President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky addressed the participants of a rally of many thousands in Tbilisi.
“Gamarjoba, Sakartvelo!
I want everyone to hear me today. We are free people and free countries, and this is forever. I am grateful to the children of Georgia who, together with our fighters, are fighting against the Russians. Their success is our common success. Their wound is our wound, and our victory will be the victory of each of them, as well as each of you.
We will never give up, because Donbass and Crimea are our land, just like Abkhazia and South Ossetia are yours. If someone wants to forget it, if someone wants to cross it out, we will definitely remind you, we will be with you.
Yesterday Ukraine received the status of an EU candidate country, you are on this path. Go - we'll help you! Ukraine and Georgia together, always! Glory to Georgia, glory to Ukraine!
My Georgian is not perfect, but my feelings are sincere. Good luck! Glory to Ukraine!".

👮🏻♂ In Sighnaghi municipality, a nursing home will be closed with a scandal.
The State Guardianship Agency will resettle the "Tsnori" institution. The elderly were kept there in unsanitary conditions, while the necessary medical care was not actually provided. 21 people live there (the maintenance of 17 is subsidized by the state). The apparatus of the People's Defender of Georgia reported about inadequate conditions. Representatives of the Ombudsman found a shocking picture in the institution: the old people wore old and dirty clothes, some of them had not taken a shower for months, and there was an unpleasant smell inside the building. The old people were poorly fed, they did not have a specially compiled menu.

🚬 The introduction of standardized cigarette packs in Georgia has been postponed from January 1, 2023 to 2025.
The deputies called the reason, the need for companies to transfer production from Ukraine to other countries.
ℹ️ In 2021, Georgia purchased $102 million worth of tobacco products, of which $78 million was Ukrainian-made.

🇬🇪⚡️🇷🇺 Upper Lars and roads in Gudauri are closed due to weather conditions.
After prolonged rains, rivers and streams overflowed their banks, carrying stones onto the track and creating a large flow of water. According to eyewitnesses, mudflow came down in one place and the Ministry of Internal Affairs completely stopped traffic in Stepantsminda. I also do not advise you to go to Gudauri on a sedan now. The Russian Ministry of Emergency Situations, for its part, also blocked the movement of all types of transport.
ℹ️ The timing of the recovery has not yet been reported, as it will largely depend on the weather forecast, but for now there is a high probability of precipitation.

👮🏻♂️ The Georgian Interior Ministry has said it will take all appropriate measures to ensure that this week's Tbilisi Pride events take place in a safe environment.
Representatives of the ultra-conservative and radical platform "Alt-Info" were summoned for interrogation in connection with complaints about threats from them against the organizers and participants of the week of dignity.
🏳️🌈 LGBT festival runs from June 28 to July 2. Tbilisi Pride had previously announced that all events would be held in a closed format, but they feared attacks even in this case.
Most likely, the situation of last year will occur, when the festival, film screening, master classes and other indoor events took place through cordons and surrounded by thousands of police officers. In 2021, participants who came to the events were verbally threatened, various objects were thrown at them, one of the eggs even hit the British ambassador.

👮🏻♂ An unusual lawsuit was registered in Georgia.
Manana Kobakhidze, a former member of parliament and now a judge of the Constitutional Court, is demanding that she be granted the status of a victim in the case of illegal wiretapping. We are talking about a data breach that occurred in 2021. More than 50,000 files containing information about the personal lives of journalists, representatives of religious organizations, politicians, civic activists, and diplomats have been released to the media.
😉 The content of the conversations, which the judge did not like so much, is curious: on the recording, she discusses with an Orthodox priest a lawsuit against a condom manufacturer. Then the company "Aiisa" on the packaging published images of various famous people, including Queen Tamar, the statue of Mother Georgia and others who offended the public.
