📢If you are reading this, please don’t scroll past without a Repost. >>>❗We ask you to stand with us now. Don’t let the pro-Russian Georgian Dream silence independent regional media in 🇬🇪. If we can find 100 people willing to donate just $5, we can keep our station on the air for another month and continue the fight against the ruling party’s anti-Western policies. Let’s prove we can.
🔒In retaliation for its critical coverage, the Georgian Government has placed a lien on Trialeti TV, a 36-year-old regional broadcaster. Officials cite old debt as justification - debt the company has repeatedly requested to restructure, but the government has refused each time. Meanwhile, pro-government channels such as Imedi and Rustavi 2 carry debts 50 times larger, yet face no enforcement action at all. This is not simply a financial dispute. It is a deliberate attempt to silence independent regional media.
Even at this very moment, “Trialeti” does not have a single GEL in its bank accounts, as every incoming payment is automatically seized by the Revenue Service.
⏳If the international community does not stand with us now, Georgian Dream will continue pushing Georgia away from the West and from democratic values. Without resistance, the country risks sliding into a situation even worse than Belarus.
That is why we are asking for your support - to help us resist this pressure and defend independent media before it is too late.
Unfortunately, the court of first instance rejected our request to lift the lien. The Court of Appeal now has up to two months to review the case.
Our only option is to survive these next two months.
🤝That is why we have launched a GoFundMe campaign. The platform’s default minimum donation is $5. If 100 people make this contribution, the TV company will be able to cover its electricity and signal distribution costs, remain on air, and continue resisting Georgian Dream’s pro-Russian, anti-Western policies through independent reporting.
🇬🇪 If you believe Georgia belongs in the West, please stand with us today.
Will you help us bring together 100 people to keep Trialeti on the air?
