People in Tbilisi, Georgia, took to the streets on Monday, Dec. 2, for the fifth night of protests against the country’s decision to halt European Union accession talks until 2028.
Footage filmed by Tea Jabishvili shows a protester wearing a motorcycle helmet, dancing, and waving a flag of the European Union as streams of water are directed against them.
Police used water cannons to disperse protesters on Monday evening.
The Georgia Ministry of Internal Affairs said that Monday night’s protest “went beyond the limits of peaceful gathering.”
The ministry said it would “resort to special measures provided by law against the members of the violent group of the protest in order to clear up the territory surrounding the parliament building.”
On Saturday, the US Department of State said Georgia had “rejected the opportunity for closer ties with Europe and made [the country] more vulnerable to the Kremlin.” A strategic partnership between the US and Georgia has been suspended, the state department said.
