Imedi was targeted by UK sanctions alongside another pro-government outlet, POSTV.

Imedi was targeted by UK sanctions alongside another pro-government outlet, POSTV.

Georgia’s government has openly sided with media sanctioned by the UK over Russian disinformation. Could this be a sign of more sanctions to come?

There has been speculation about how Georgian banks will handle their cooperation with the channels under sanctions.

The Georgian Foreign Ministry sought to demand an explanation regarding the sanctions.

The main shareholder of the pro-government POSTV is MP Viktor Japaridze.

Leaders of Georgia’s ruling party strongly condemned the sanctions on Imedi and POSTV.

The two channels were sanctioned on the fourth anniversary of the full-scale invasion of Ukraine.
