Protesters blocked roads near the offices of the ruling Georgian Dream party in Tbilisi and Kutaisi. In Tbilisi, protesters blocked Rustaveli Avenue, Newsgeorgia writes.

The protest has also begun in Batumi, with protests announced in Gori and Zugdidi. The Tbilis Life Telegram channel writes about clashes with police in Kutaisi.

On the afternoon of November 28, Prime Minister Irakli Kobakhidze announced that Georgia refuses to negotiate accession to the European Union until the end of 2028. According to him, Georgia also refuses any budget grants from the EU. He noted that the end of 2028 is the time when Georgia will be properly prepared from an economic point of view for the start of negotiations on accession to the EU in 2030.

Commenting on Kobakhidze's statements, Georgian President Salome Zurabishvili said that today "marked the end of the constitutional coup; the movement from Europe towards Russia." According to her, "the illegitimate government declared war on its people."
