On May 19 Media Development Foundation addressed to  Georgian National Communication Commission (GNCC) with the request to study the violation of the  Georgian  Broadcasting Law and the relevant resolution of the GNCC by Media Union "Obiektivi" while airing the Russian-language films.

The paragraph 2 of this  Article states that "GNCC may issue a resolution determining the obligation of general and specialized broadcaster to allocate in their weekly broadcasting networks a film produced in a non-national language (other than a soap opera) in the language(s) of its original production, without dubbing into the national language of Georgia, with subtitling in the national language of Georgia".
