Protesters broke through a barricade at the Georgian parliament on Tuesday, 14 May, after politicians voted to approve the third and final reading of a bill on foreign agents that has caused a political crisis in the country. The legislation would require media and non-commercial organisations to register as being under foreign influence if they receive more than 20 per cent of their budget from abroad.

It now faces a likely veto by president Salome Zourabichvili, which parliament can override by holding another vote on the law.
