Protests in Tbilisi follow Georgia's suspension of EU membership talks amid election controversy.

Protests erupted in Tbilisi, Georgia, after the government announced it would suspend EU membership talks until 2028, following a controversial election. The European Parliament had condemned the election as neither free nor fair, calling for a re-run under international supervision. Protesters clashed with police, who used tear gas and water cannons. The EU has put Georgia's accession on hold and cut financial support over concerns about democratic freedoms.
