BREAKING: President Salome Zourabichvili has walked to the special forces preparing to advance against protesters and is now talking to them. She asks them whether they had vowed to protect Georgia and Georgians or Russia, and demands they think of the future of their children!

You are Georgian and therefore you are European. No one can take that away from you.
The journey is long and difficult, but we know you won't give up, so we won't give up either.
