We will not obey the Russian law! - reads the statement of non-governmental organizations.
Non-governmental organizations point out that the law will remain a piece of paper and they declare disobedience.
"55 days ago, the government broke the word given to the Georgian people and re-introduced the Russian law. They wanted to break the civil sector by passing this law, but they received unprecedented unity and tireless opposition. The Georgian people firmly defend and will defend their European future and will never get used to living under the Russian boot. Russian law will not work in our country! It will remain a piece of paper that no one will obey!
The authorities knowingly created a threat to the economy, international reputation, civil order and peace of our country. They did this on purpose, so that the citizens of this country could no longer help each other. But we have been proving for 55 days that people never get tired of loving their country. Our protest and struggle will continue until this law is repealed!
They tried to intimidate us with special forces, beatings and swearing, arrests and illegal fines, but they did not consider that nothing can stop us from doing the righteous thing called helping people. We will continue our work - we will help people and each other and we will not obey the Russian law!
We will not leave anyone alone, we will protect everyone arrested and fined. Our lawyers will fight in domestic and international courts. We will collect money to pay each other the fines imposed on us for the love and freedom of Georgia.
Our struggle is seen and supported by the whole civilized world. With the adoption of the Russian law, monitoring of the elections is in danger, but we, Georgian civil organizations, promise to protect the elections and the vote of each citizen. We will be with you in every polling station and we will observe to protect free and fair elections!
This is Georgia! We will not become Russians! Georgian people will once again excite the whole world with their fight for freedom.
We declare disobedience – no to Russian law! Yes to Europe", reads the statement.
