Police in the capital of Georgia on Tuesday unleashed tear gas to break up a large demonstration outside the country's parliament to protest a proposed law that 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. Opponents say the proposal would obstruct Georgia's long-sought prospects of joining the European Union and denounce it as “the Russian law” because of similar legislation used by Moscow to stigmatize independent news media and organizations seen as being at odds with the Kremlin. The law says non-commercial organizations and news media that receive 20% or more of their funding from overseas would have to register as “pursuing the interests of a foreign power” — the only change in wording from the draft law withdrawn last year, which said that relevant groups must register as “agents of foreign influence.”

The U.S. government asked for a so-called rapid response dispute settlement panel under the USMCA North American trade pact to address a labor dispute involving call centers operated by Spain's Atento in Mexico, U.S. trade officials said on Tuesday. The move follows a U.S. request in January for Mexico to review whether workers at the call centers in central Hidalgo state were being denied their association and collective bargaining rights.
