Opposition Says Government Dragging out Call of By-Elections
On April 15 the opposition Republican Party demanded that the authorities immediately appoint a date for the MP by-elections in Kobuleti, Batumi and Shuakhevi individual constituencies in Adjara Autonomous Republic, as well as in the Tkibuli constituency in western Georgia.
MP Davit Berdzenishvili, the leader of the Republic Party, said at a session of the Parliamentary Committee for Legal Issues that the authorities are intentionally dragging-out the calling of by-elections, as they fear that the ruling National Movement party may lose the race, especially in Adjara, where the Republican Party?s positions are relatively stronger than in other parts of Georgia.
