Saakashvili suggests Georgian opposition to get back to parliament

President of Georgia Mikhail Saakashvili has offered those members of radical opposition who had torn their mandates into pieces after parliamentary elections on May 21, 2008, to return to parliament.

Mr Saakashvili has noted that should these oppositionists support his offer he is ready to initiate an amendment to the law and give them a chance to return to parliament. "In order to have all the parts of the society presented in parliament," he has added.

We remind you that last year the oppositionists who were elected to parliament publicly destroyed their deputy mandates in protest against falsifications, which, in their opinion, had been admitted at the elections.

According to President of Georgia, former MPs had destroyed their mandates just "to put everything upside down at first opportunity and then get to parliament through the back door." Mikhail Saakashvili has noted that outgoing from the outcomes of both presidential and parliamentary elections, "falsification of them was impossible even mathematically," as reported by "Georgia Online".
