In Tbilisi, hunger strike at the building of Georgian Parliament continues
The opposition is holding information actions all over Tbilisi calling people to rally together by today's evening at the building of the Parliament of Georgia.
Now, about 12 tents are installed near the building, and the number of hunger-strikers has reached 60 persons. Besides, as oppositionists assert, people from the regions plan to join the action starting from March 13.
Let us note here that supporters of the opposition are already recruited in the regions. Besides, hunger strikes are also held in the regions, for example, MP Gogi Tsulaya is on hunger strike in the city of Kutaisi. As he said, 15 more persons are soon going to join him in Kutaisi. Under Mr Tsulaya's forecast the figure can still grow, the "Rustavi-2" TV Company broadcasts.
Giya Tsagareishvili, a member of the Party named "For United Georgia", has declared that he is ready to sacrifice his life.
"We'll fight to the bitter end. If necessary, I'm ready to die for the well-being of my country," Mr Tsagareishvili said to the "Caucasian Knot" correspondent.
