The constitution of the Republic of Georgia does protect free speech.
Every individual has the right to freedom of speech, thought, conscience, religion and belief.
The persecution of an individual for his thoughts, beliefs or religion is prohibited as is compulsion to express opinions about them. These rights may not be restricted unless the exercise of these rights infringes upon the rights of other individuals. The freedom of intellectual creativity and intellectual property rights are guaranteed. The prohibition of the distribution of, or seizure of, creative work is not permissible, unless it violates the legal rights of other individuals. Every individual has the right to freely receive and disseminate information, to express and disseminate his opinion orally, in writing or in any other form.
