In Georgia, questions about the fight against the Russian Empire have been removed from national exams.
In Georgia, disputes have arisen regarding changes to the program of the Unified National Exams (UNE) for 2025. Questions about the uprisings against Tsarism in the first half of the 19th century have been excluded from historical tests. These events played a significant role in shaping national consciousness and inspired generations of independence fighters. The changes have sparked outrage in academic circles, with historian Temo Papaskiri stating that they are politically motivated.
The regime today is so anti-Georgian and so pro-Russian that it is practically a continuation of the pro-Russian policies they have pursued all this Time
The publication also notes that the program on the Georgian language and literature has been significantly reduced. The opposition president of Georgia, Salome Zourabichvili, remarked that the changes reflect state policy aimed at displacing national-patriotic ideas.
Meanwhile, the ruling party 'Georgian Dream' has chosen former football player Mikheil Kavelashvili as a candidate for the presidency.
Recall that in Georgia, the opposition did not recognize the election results, and President Zourabichvili called for protests. International observers also expressed their assessment of the elections in the country.
