Khajimba Rejects Bagapsh’s Proposal to Take PM’s Office

On November 21 Abkhaz pro-governmental presidential contender Raul Khajimba declined the chance to become unrecognized republic’s Prime Minister in opposition presidential candidate Sergey Bagapsh’s government, Itar-Tass news agency reported.


Sergey Bagapsh claims victory in the disputed October 3 presidential polls and is preparing for his inauguration, scheduled for December 6. Meanwhile Raul Khajimba is demanding that repeat elections take place.


“I was offered to take over the position of Prime Minister or Vice-President. But I have already been Prime Minister,” Raul Khajimba said at a news briefing in Abkhaz capital Sokhumi.


Khajimba also warned that Bagapsh’s decision to hold his presidential inauguration on December 6, “will further strain the aggravated situation in Abkhazia.”
