USA imposes visa bans on Georgian officials over democracy concerns, amid EU accession protests.

The U.S. has imposed visa restrictions on about 20 Georgian officials accused of undermining democracy, including government ministers, MPs, and security personnel. The move follows protests against the Georgian Dream party's decision to delay EU accession talks. The State Department condemns the party's use of violence against protesters, media, and activists and warns of further sanctions.
