Thousands of protesters in Tbilisi, Georgia, are speaking out against a bill that would require organizations receiving more than 20% of funding from international sources to register as “foreign agents.” Many fear this legislation would push Georgia further from Western allies, and muck up aspirations to EU membership. And, last week, two Americans were killed in the Mexican city of Matamoros following their kidnapping. They were part of a group of four travelers who crossed the border seeking medical tourism. Also, the cause of the explosions that hit the Nord Stream gas pipelines in the Baltic Sea last September has been widely debated. Now, officials are reacting to media reports that a pro-Ukraine group was behind them. Plus, a new memoir uncovers Ukraine’s troubled past.
