All three opposition factions of the United National Movement have boycotted the sessions of the parliament and returned fro Kutaisi to Tbilisi. The members of the minority say that they are now moving on the state of reaction. They have other reasons for boycott as well, including the detention of former minister and other senior military authorities and the beginning of tax inspection in the Georgian Public Broadcaster.
MP Irma Nadirashvili says they had planned discussion of the budget parameters with the minister of finance, who failed to arrive in Kutaisi.
`Apparently, he is busy with searching for evidence against Bacho Akhalaia and Giorgi Kalandadze and with the inspection at the Georgian Public Broadcast. Therefore, we are not going to talk to the deputy minister about an entirely unchanged budget. We are going to Tbilisi to attend the trials of Akhalaia and Kalandadze and support them,` Nadirashvili said.
