9:01 pm
i'm figuring out welcome to the program. must protest in georgia have entered the 3rd week of thousands of people take to the streets to denounce a bill, but could threaten media freedom. and d val the countries hopes of joining the european union protest as opposed with many a quarter of a russian law. as moscow gives a similar legislation to cub independent news organizations and groups critical of the kremlin. and even though would require and chose and media groups, that certainly seems more than 20 percent of the funding for the board to register as assuming the interest of a foreign power e. u. in the us of georgia to drop the legislation with george's president selling may as to what a beach really finds itself increasingly at odds with the countries governing potty, she told d w, she would not let this bill pass a yes or i really need to be slow as
9:02 pm
a feature or all of those that are being taken by the government in the recent period and that are going against the letter and the speech of the recommendations that were offered by the european union to open to pay the way for the opening of the negotiations, but it's now very clear that the slow, which is a russian little by essence because it's the way russia has managed to really repress said the senior society, that's a big government tiers trying, trying to present to the partners of georgia as the ages of the nation, as those are the trying to oversaw the government and keeping the excitement to on russia as it gets closer now to be on your friends. so that is becoming increasingly clear that it's not only the russian move, that is the problem. the problem is the russian government or government that is
9:03 pm
prone to making concessions to russia and to turn the orientation of this country towards russia. and that is what the vast majority of this country is protesting. gibbs not only below is a symbol, but the reality is that the countries saying, we want your result are your offend shooter, which is close at hand. we're going to be sending, as well as our independence. we're not going to giving you also saying to all parts and there isn't that. so here is that stage not only the future of georgia, but either way, the future of europe and of good strengths. well, let's get some, a new perspective on this. from theo, the fun come on i, she's a german member of the european parliament for the green party. welcome to the w. i'm guessing you would support the call from us from the line from the european
9:04 pm
commission for george's parliament, the change cost over the so called russian no absolutely v all. i think there is a big group of friends of georgia in the european parliament, and we very much regret the last political developments. i mean the, especially bit slow, but of course, this development last already for quite some time. and it does not show the right direction while georgia has actually the constitutional hopefully case to lead this country closer to the u. s. to, to nature. and of course, with this kind of draft lois of a draft bills, are you actually tracked this constitutional obligation and yes, in the european parliament, there is a lot of a big concern about the european future of georgia and why it's funding to us. why the, you is choosing to meddle in the hands of a country that he's not
9:05 pm
a member of the block a well, i mean, that has applied for the membership, and there was a big debate in the european union, whether it is already enough, what georgia had to offer to grant the candidates that is, and not everyone was too happy that we did it. but because the judge, it was in the past every, a role model for reforming for being one of the engines as so to say, in the post. soviets here, uh for the democratic reform, for a rule of law reforms for police reforms and corruption and reforms especially. and of course, there is a big part of the society, an overall majority of the society in favor of bringing this country closer to the the you. that's why they actually put pressure on the got them and uh on the ruling
9:06 pm
party. uh, to submit this application, i don't think that georgia dream, the ruling party was really in favor. but because of the civil society, because the society such is absolutely in favor of becoming a member, they were forced to do so. okay, with this kind of floor with this kind of floor, you actually contradict this application and it does not in our interest to bring more members into the european union, will actually are not the favor of just to repeat the values. and that's why we did not interest here. yeah. and so where does, how far does this support for civil society from the you go, what kind of should be you do to help as i think there are different options on the table at the moment i would hope that we see a shuttle diplomacy that we see high ranking officials from the you going to to
9:07 pm
place the explaining to the far right to use that this is simply not acceptable that have to choose whether they want to go the routine path. all they want to go the rest of the car, and of course they will be election soon. i think it should be in our interest to have a large and a very, i would say comprehensive election observation mission not just from the or sit e, but also maybe an extra mall, backed by the european parliament, backed by the european union to make sure that there will be no massive fraud. the minute lation may be in favor of the judge and the dream party to make sure that they stay in power, because this is a big danger and that as well, many people are afraid of this draft floor is especially targeted at the local election up sedation groups and so we have to make sure the next elections fair and free, and here i see
9:08 pm
a big danger. so here is that you could support the could also support independent n g o c, which then if they don't register as, as a foreign agent, they have to pay funds to compensate the funds we can help. so there are many options on the table. thank you. for talking to us throughout the field, a phone come on, a green member of the your in pounds. based on having me, the united nations has declared that may the 3rd world press freedom, diane dw is chosen the reluctant champion from russia for its own freedom of speech award. usually the fall now is the widow of alexi devonte who died this year in an optic prison. his death was widely st. louis, having been orchestrated by the russian government this in the fall now a shares the award with the russian anti corruption foundation group founded by her late husband. earlier this year,
