Female politicians in Georgia are speaking out against a prosecutor’s request to send two women to prison.
Tamar Kordzaia and Mzia Amaglobeli have been accused of being involved in a protest against Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. They are now facing possible jail time.
The female politicians say that Kordzaia and Amaglobeli should not be punished for speaking out against the war. They believe that the prosecutor’s office should change its request to avoid trouble with the Russian government.
If the two women are sent to prison, the female politicians say that Russia will have a responsibility in their situation.
