Georgia's Democracy in Crisis: One-Party Rule Looms

Georgias political landscape is rapidly changing, with the ruling party, Georgian Dream, targeting opposition leaders and aiming to ban opposition groups. This shift towards authoritarianism has raised concerns about a slide towards one-party rule, as Georgias democratic institutions weaken and its courts come under state control. The European Union has expressed its disapproval, stating that Georgia is now a candidate for membership in name only. The situation is further complicated by the ruling partys claims of protecting Georgia from opposition figures allegedly seeking to seize power and provoke a war with Russia.
