Tbilisi is protesting again.
About 8,000-10,000 people came to the center of the Georgian capital today. Basically, the opposition protested. The main slogans of the action were two:
📍no war and support for Ukraine
📍 resignation of Prime Minister Irakli Garibashvili
According to the first point, the anthem of Ukraine was also sung, the chants "Ze-len-skiy" and "Uk-ra-i-na". But for the second, the main discontent of the audience was caused by the official's words that Georgia would not join the sanctions against Russia "taking into account national interests, the country does not plan to join economic and financial sanctions."
🇺🇦🇬🇪 President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky thanked the residents of Georgia.
«Incredible Georgian people who understand that friends must be supported! 🇬🇪🇺🇦 Grateful to everyone in Tbilisi and other cities who came out in support of Ukraine and against the war. Indeed, there are times when citizens are not the Government, but better the Government."

🦠 Coronavirus statistics in Georgia: summary results 2020-2022.
Regular readers of the blog know that every morning there was information about the number of new cases, the number of recovered, deceased and vaccinations. Today I'm closing this column.
ℹ️ Exactly two years ago, the first case of covid-19 was diagnosed in Georgia. Over the past time, we have experienced several months of curfews, total bans and fines, closure of businesses and projects, illness and death of people close to us.
Now, the situation has stabilized. And although the number of new daily cases is still several thousand, we have learned to live with the virus. And it, too, began to be transferred much easier. This is still a serious illness and I urge you not to forget about it, monitor your health and take care of yourself.
❗️ And, of course, NO WAR!
