[000:00:00;00] the, this is dw news line from berlin. george's capital prepares for more demonstrations against the law which could crack down on media freedoms. protestors have been on the streets for 3 weeks denouncing a so called russian law as a threat to the countries you aspirations towards. the president tells dw, show the to the bill. also coming up in the program, canadian police charged 3 indian nationals over the killing of a 6 separatist in

a case that sparked diplomatic crisis between india and canada. and berlin. someone's at top, the russian envoy over a series of cyber attacks against members of the governance of democratic party. triple form minister on the block says russian fact groups are also targeting the country's defense and technology sectors. the . i'm aaron tilting berlin. thank you very much for tuning and we start in georgia were mass protests have entered the 3rd week. the voters are aimed at a government bill, which they say will crack down on the media in georgia's and georgia's ambitions to join the you the you and the us of, or georgia to drop the legislation. housing, people in georgia have been taking to the streets for weeks protesting

a bill that could touch and media freedom. crowds oppose was for the, for an agent spell, which would require immediate non profits to register as working for a foreign power. if they get more than 20 percent of the funding from abroad, the, the motivation behind the decision to reintroduce the load despite the problem is that it would not have been is clearly rushed in style even before examining the law itself. that's what many here are calling it the solar russian law. that's because moscow use a similar legislation, declared press freedom and silence critics of the kremlin georgian presidents, them is what a beast, billy opposes the bill and don't be w. she would not let it pass as it did with georgia as plans of joining the you. so this low is pretty sorry by everyone. and it's criticized by your 10 factors by our

american partners. that say that this will be an obstacle to the european tasks of georgia when we are expecting by the end of the year to get to the possibility to open negotiations. for i told you as a entry into the european union, while the president in western partners have opposed the law, george's prime minister has dismissed the criticism. he says their interference has in fact, accelerated violence. the other fix is a fellow at the council on foreign relations in american thing take in washington dc. so as we saw, there are thousands of hundreds of thousands of people in georgia are opposed to this bill. but how likely is it to pass? it was the ruling party is very detailed mind to make this law pass. it is the 2nd time that they have already introduced it. so this is not just a one off. this is something where the ruling party, georgia dream,

would lose all credibility if they were not push it to. so it's a very serious situation and really at fault in the world for just past what the you being union and to what's the west? well, as, as you just mentioned, there are many critics say that this could be an attempt to realign georgia with moscow. do you share that assessment for a long time? they have been concerns that the great cause, you know, behind the scenes between now even you should be me was ones judging. prime minister then has step down, but still am actually. so it's most of how over the judge and we is watch a friendly, he has made his business in washington business fortunes. but this law would be the 1st, really a definite of evidence that judge. and we mentioned to you that you basically in the background imitating western politics and implementing a law,

which is just to office the model on the wash just for an agent though, that it is really difficult to argue that this is not a move to what's most go know why exactly are we seeing this realignment with moscow? i mean, georgia fought a war against russian back separatists in 2008 and other regional countries like armine, are just and see themselves from us. go at the moment. this is a huge power adults, especially as such a huge majority of the population does not want to we align with moscow. so from the perspective of george and we made a scene that you knew she really? um, the, the thinking goes that doctor really has no alternative. that if it opposes washer any further, no one will come to help georgia in the same way as you claim it's being helped right now. that's the argument, the official document. but at the same time,

it is very fair to say that it is the interest of the judge and dream potty adult. to see that even if we need to, we buy these ties to russia. and it is remarkable that the able to do so against the will of population of the population, which is also because the a position is so weak and so discredited after yes of it's actually this will in georgia. all right, that was the honest x from the council on foreign relationships or counseling formulations. rather. thank you very much for joining us. absolutely, my pleasure. canadian police have arrested 3 men over the killing of a 6 separate, isn't vancouver last year or the seeing the jar was shot dead by gunman outside the cig temple. he led me jar was a canadian citizen, and he was wanted by indian authorities for legend involved and terrorism as borders parties, series diplomatic crisis between canada and india. after canadian prime minister
