Bipartisan group of US senators warns Georgia over foreign agent law

FILE - The lights are on at the US Capitol in Washington on late Feb. 9, 2024, as the Senate settles in for a rare weekend session to work on a package of wartime funding for Ukraine, Israel and other US allies.

A bipartisan group of 14 U.S. senators on Friday sent a letter to Georgian Prime Minister Irakli Kobakhidze expressing concern over his government’s decision to reintroduce and advance a "Russian-style foreign agents’ law" similar to one they were forced to withdraw a year ago.
