Georgian protesters form human chains, demanding EU integration and elections amid government crackdown.

Thousands of Georgians formed human chains in Tbilisi and across the country on Saturday, continuing their second month of pro-EU protests against the ruling Georgian Dream party's decision to delay EU accession talks until 2028. Demonstrators demand fresh elections and accuse the government of an authoritarian, pro-Russian shift. The protests have faced police brutality, leading to over 400 arrests and drawing international condemnation, with the US and European countries imposing visa bans on Georgian officials.
