- Why Georgia's 'foreign agent' law could dash the country's hopes of joining the EU | DW News
- Date posted
- 17 days ago
- Description
- Thousands of protesters rallied in the Georgian capital, Tbilisi, for a third day on Wednesday after lawmakers advanced a controversial media bill which opponents fear will undermine the country's ambition of joining the European Union (EU).
The proposed law would require media and non-commercial organizations to register as being under foreign influence if they receive more than 20% of their funding from abroad.
It has been denounced by critics as the "Russian law" because of parallels with a "foreign agents" legislation used by Moscow to clamp down on criticism of the Kremlin.
The bill passed its first reading in parliament on Wednesday with 83 votes by members of the ruling Georgian Dream party. Opposition parliamentarians boycotted the vote.
For more on this DW spoke to Salome Zourabichvili, Georgia's President.

- How to strenghten Ukraine's air defense against Russian strikes? | To the Point
- Date posted
- 17 days ago
- Description
- Exposed and exhausted: things are getting worse on Ukraine’s eastern front as Russian troops advance and airstrikes pummel cities— especially Ukraine’s second-biggest, Kharkiv. Air campaigns are knocking out Ukrainian energy facilities, and Ukraine’s top military commander is warning the situation in the east has “deteriorated significantly”. Two hours north of Kyiv in Chernihiv, the death toll rises again from Russian missiles. Ukraine is calling for more help from the West – more aid from the United States, and better protection. As Russia intensifies its airstrikes campaign, we’re asking: How to strengthen Ukraine's air defenses?

- The EU will widen sanctions against Iran following the country's weekend attack on Israel, European Council President Charles Michel told reporters in the early hours of Thursday morning after the first day of a two-day summit of EU leaders in Brussels.
"The idea is to target the companies that are needed for the drones, for the missiles," he said. The finer details are yet to be worked out, he added.
The EU will take "further restrictive measures against Iran, notably in relation to unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and missiles," the European Council said in a statement.
The statement also called “on Iran and its proxies to cease all attacks" and urged all sides to exercise “utmost restraint and to refrain from any action that may increase tensions in the region.”
EU foreign policy chief Josep Borrell has tasked his staff with drawing up new measures and expanding sanctions. The EU has already targeted those responsible for making drones that Iran has sold...

- Inside the extremist Russian militias fighting alongside Ukraine | DW News

- Description
- Ukraine’s fight for survival against Russia has attracted all manner of allies, including those who do not align with Ukraine's values.
Three Russian units said they carried out attacks inside Russian territory. They were together on the battlefield and at a press conference, but wanting to hurt Putin’s Russia is where their commonality ends. The Legion Freedom of Russia is seen as liberal. The Siberian Battalion is made up mainly of minorities from Russia. Denis Nikitin’s Volunteer corps describes itself as nationalist and has a far-right agenda.
Russia justified its invasion of Ukraine with the lie that it was ‘denazifying’ it. This, in a country where the far right doesn’t hold a single parliamentary seat.
And Ukraine cooperating with Neo-Nazis might seem counterintuitive. But for now, the enemy of Ukraine's enemy counts as some kind of friend.

- Would Iran be able to finance a prolonged military conflict with Israel? | DW News
- Date posted
- 19 days ago
- Description
- Iran's attack on Israel has raised questions over its military capabilities and its potential readiness for an escalated conflict in the region. The country - which has been under international sanctions for years - has been suffering from high inflation and low growth.
But over the past few months, it's also been showing increasing readiness to flex its military muscles, carrying out attacks on tankers near the Strait of Hormuz and reinforcing its support for a range of militant groups including Hamas and Hezbollah.
DW Business speaks with Djavad Salehi-Isfahani, Professor of Economics at Virginia Tech and co-author of the book ‘How Sanctions Work: Iran and the Impact of Economic Warfare.’

- Israeli War Cabinet discusses the response to Iran attack | DW News
- Date posted

- Description
- Israel is considering how to respond to Iran's unprecedented attack - Tehran's first on Israeli territory. World leaders - including Israel's greatest ally, the United States - are calling for restraint. Iran has already said it will respond fully to any Israeli counterattack.
The EU is considering possible new sanctions against Iran following the attack on Israel. New punitive measures could be imposed under a sanctions regime that was put in place after Iran began supporting Russia's war of aggression against Ukraine. Under this regime, the export of components for the design and production of unmanned aerial vehicles to Iran has been banned. Individuals and organizations are also subject to punitive measures.
