Vladimir Putin: I was surprised by the courage and character of the Georgian government, which they showed to defend their opinion

I was surprised by the courage with which the Georgian government defended the law "On transparency of foreign influences". This was announced by the President of Russia, Vladimir Putin.

According to Putin, he was watching the events in Georgia with surprise.

"When the events started in Georgia, I, to tell the truth, watched all this with surprise and followed it. We have no relations with them, with the Georgian government. But I was simply amazed at their courage and character to stand up for themselves. Now I will not even evaluate this opinion", said Putin.
