CUG, Socialist Party Form Election Alliance

(Tbilisi. March 7, 2003. Civil Georgia) – Pro-Presidential Citizens? Union of Georgia (CUG) and the Socialists parties officially form an election bloc today.

The parties have launched the cooperation already on the eve of the by-elections in Saburtalo district of Tbilisi last November, when the Socialists withdrew their candidate in favor of the CUG.

Leader of the Socialists Party Vakhtang Rcheulishvili told Civil Georgia today that he wishes to see in the bloc Industrialists Party as well, ?but there is no response from them so far. They want to participate in the elections independently.?

?I hope they will change decision and join us,? Rcheulishvili added.
