Traditionally, protesters against the suspension of negotiations on Georgia's European integration have blocked traffic on Rustaveli Avenue near the building of the Georgian Parliament, the "Interpressnews" has reported. The marchers who demand to provide airtime for socio-political discussions have joined them.

The rally continued collecting letters addressed to the arrested protesters who are under threat of serious prison terms – there are more than 30 of them. Anyone can write a letter under the slogan "Freedom for Regime Prisoners", the "News of Georgia" News Agency has reported.
