Why does a foreign agent bill undermine EU hopes? Shouldn’t your population already be willing to join the EU?

Also Georgia isn’t really Europe*. Although they’ve already let Cyprus in. Might need a new name at some point. “Eurasian Union” probably wouldn’t be good because I doubt they’d want to extend it further east than Azerbaijan, and they definitely wouldn’t want to accept Arab countries. Plus “Eurasianism” is a scary Russian thing.

* Using the Caucasus as the natural border, Georgia doesn’t really go past them in any significant amount. The one place you can maybe argue for is Abkhazia which isn’t actually Georgia anyway.
