Anti -government protesters are trying to storm the Presidential Palace

Anti -government protesters in Georgia have tried to storm the Presidential Palace in the capital Tbilisi.

Police use tear gas and water cannon to scatter them.

The protests began after some government opposition data called for a “peace revolution” against the government led by the Georgian dream party, which was accused of pro -Russian and authoritarian.

The country’s pro -Western opposition has been running protests since last year, when the Georgian dream won elections that its critics claim to have been deceptive.

The Georgian dream then froze conversations about the accession of the European Union of Georgia, sharply stopping the long -standing national goal.
