In the video, Parliament turned into a wrestling ring!

Representatives in the Georgian Parliament quarreled during the discussion of a divisive new law called the “Foreign Agents Bill.”
A video clip posted on the Internet showed the leader of the Georgian Dream Party, Mamuka Medinaradze, being punched in the face while speaking with an opposition representative.
Then many other deputies from both sides joined the fight, exchanging blows.

The bill – proposed by the ruling Georgian Dream party – calls for media outlets and non-commercial organizations to be considered “subject to foreign influence” if they receive more than 20 percent of their funding from abroad.
Opponents of the bill consider it a “Russian law” because Moscow has created similar legislation that it uses to stigmatize independent media outlets and news organizations that oppose the Kremlin’s policies.

You can see what happened in the attached video.
