Exclusive interview with Georgia's President Salome Zourabichvili

Protests against the Georgian government have now surpassed 200 continuous days following a disputed parliamentary election late last year. But as the government cracks down on dissent, those protests have become smaller as fear of reprisals take hold. In a rare interview with foreign media, the fifth president of Georgia, Salome Zourabichvili, has told SBS that Russia is behind terror in the South Caucuses nation as it attempts to assert control over the former Soviet Republic. Prue Lewarne sent this report from Georgia’s capital, Tbilisi.
