TBILISI (Reuters) - About 50,000 protesters marched peacefully through the streets of the Georgian capital on Saturday, Reuters witnesses said, in a fresh show of opposition to a "foreign agents" bill critics say is inspired by one in Russia that has been used to clamp down on dissent there.
The rally came a day after Georgian Prime Minister Irakli Kobakhidze said the government would push ahead with the bill despite opposition from what he cast as "misled" youngsters who feel resentment towards Russia.
