Foreign media reports that a deputy in Georgia hit her colleague with a water bottle today. The debate in the assembly started because of the issue of "foreign agents", which has caused controversy in the country.
In the video published on social networks, the MP can be seen hitting her colleague on the head with a water bottle, thought to be a plastic bottle.
Meanwhile, the latter shouts at him and points his finger. Recently, protests and gatherings related to "foreign agents" have erupted in Georgia.
The controversial bill requires organizations that receive more than 20 percent of their funding from abroad to register as "foreign agents."
Opponents of the bill call the law authoritarian and "inspired by Russia," but the ruling Georgian Dream party says it is necessary to ensure transparency in the funding of non-governmental organizations.
The European Union has repeatedly said that the bill jeopardizes Georgia's path to EU membership.
In a statement released earlier this month, EU Foreign Policy Chief Josep Borrel said that the adoption of the bill would have negative consequences on Georgia's integration path.
Although Georgian President Salome Zourabichvili is expected to veto the bill if it is approved by Parliament, the ruling party can override it if it gets 76 votes. After this act, the speaker of the parliament can sign the approval of the law.
Meanwhile, the spokesman of Russian President Vladimir Putin has said that Moscow has nothing to do with the draft law.
