Today, on March 3rd, an order signed by Foreign Minister Margus Tsahkna came into effect, under which Estonia has imposed an entry ban on 55 Georgian prosecutors, judges, police officers, members of parliament, and other individuals.
"We added 55 additional Georgian individuals to the entry ban list," Foreign Minister Tsahkna said. "The list includes judges, prosecutors, police officials and police commissioners, platform creators and members of parliament, who are responsible for the prosecution of protesters by the judicial system and judiciary and law enforcement agencies. The listed Georgian individuals have either taken part in violence or threatened it," Tsahkna said. "The violence used in Georgia against protesters, journalists, and opposition leaders is unacceptable, criminal and in violation of human rights."
Latvia and Lithuania joined Estonia in imposing bans. A ban on entering Estonia has been imposed for a total of 83 Georgian individuals.
