The Netherlands, Estonia, the Czech Republic and Sweden are demanding sanctions against Georgia in response to the Georgian government's efforts to pass the controversial Foreign Influence Transparency Law. According to "Armenpress", the Financial Times (FT) writes about this.

The discussion of possible sanctions against Georgia will take place at the meeting of EU foreign ministers on May 27. The FT notes that Georgia, being a candidate for EU membership, ignored warnings from Brussels and months-long street protests, continuing the procedure of adopting the law. Sources familiar with the issue told the publication that the EU is considering "various means of putting pressure on the Georgian government". the law on transparency" should be adopted. On May 21, the Venice Commission of the Council of Europe "resolutely advised" Tbilisi to refuse the adoption of the controversial law. The Commission of the Council of Europe emphasized that "the law, which is allegedly aimed at ensuring transparency, objectively leads to the risk of stigmatization, silencing and, as a result, the elimination of those associations and mass media that receive even a small part of their funds from abroad." May 14 On May 18, the Parliament of Georgia adopted the "Transparency of Foreign Influence" law in the third and final reading, but on May 18, the country's president, Salome Zurabishvili, vetoed it.
