Pro-European protests in Georgia have continued for 474 days.

Participants in a rally on Rustaveli Avenue on the 474th day of protests reminded Georgian Dream representatives of the findings of the OSCE Moscow Mechanism report.

As reported by the Caucasian Knot, on March 14, opposition supporters re-erected tents near the parliament building. Two days earlier, police dismantled the activists' tents that had been standing on Rustaveli Avenue for many months, after which they checked the backpacks and bags of participants in the nightly protest to prevent protesters from bringing new tents onto the parliament grounds.

Supporters of Georgia's European integration, carrying national and EU flags, gathered today on the pedestrian section of Rustaveli Avenue near the parliament building for the 474th day in a row, Publika reports.

During the rally, those gathered chanted "Strength in Unity!" Activists held signs reading "The enemy of one's own people will not go unpunished," "We warn you: you are digging your own graves," "Tragic: your beloved Moscow on the stone of your political grave" (a link to the Moscow Mechanism report confirming gross human rights violations in Georgia - Caucasian Knot note), and "Stop plundering the country and leave," according to posts by photographer Mo Se and Georgian media on Facebook*.

The trial of the attempted storming of the presidential palace continued today in the Tbilisi City Court. According to lawyers, the court examined video footage taken by Interior Ministry officials near the palace on the day of the mass gathering on October 4, but the investigation "failed to establish the identities of the masked men who participated in the demolition of the fence, which raises many questions," Pirveli notes.

On October 4, 2025, the day of municipal elections, thousands of people gathered in central Tbilisi. After opera singer Paata Burchaladze declared that power in Georgia belongs to the people, clashes between protesters and security forces erupted near the presidential palace. Security forces used riot gear, while protesters used firecrackers. Six protesters and 21 security forces were hospitalized, and another 30 people received medical treatment at the scene. Police later opened a criminal investigation into calls to overthrow the government, attacks on police officers, and the storming of the palace.

Protesters in Georgia have been demanding new parliamentary elections and the release of political prisoners since November 28, 2024. Security forces violently dispersed the protests, using tear gas and water cannons, and detained protesters. Thousands of people were subjected to administrative prosecution during the protests.
