Salome Samadashvili: While they were making us watch the impeachment show, they also sneaked a new censorship law into the Parliament - they pledge they will stay in power like Putin forever, and at the same time they are trying to block all the holes of freedom

While they were making us watch the impeachment show, they also sneaked a new censorship law into the Parliament - they pledge they will stay in power like Putin forever, and at the same time they are trying to block all the holes of freedom, one of the leaders of the Lelo party, Salome Samadashvili, said about the amendments to the Law on Broadcasting adopted by the Parliament in the first reading.

As Samadashvili said, "we are being deprived of the chance to live in a democratic country."

"I've once witnessed a couple of people start a fight in the New York subway. Their accomplices, while people were entertained by the fight, stole their things. This is how the Dream behaves. While they were making us watch the impeachment show, they also sneaked a new censorship law into the Parliament. At the same time, they pledge they are going to stay in power forever, like Putin, and they are trying to block all the holes of freedom. And we, entertained by performances, are being deprived of the chance to live in a democratic country", said Samadashvili.

The Parliament passed the amendments to the Law on Broadcasting in the first reading, according to which the decisions made by the broadcaster's self-regulatory body regarding the programs containing hate speech and calls to terrorism will be appealed to the National Communications Commission.
