Shevardnadze Says Opposition Might Form Majority in New Parliament

In the live broadcast on the State TV Channel on October 29 President Shevardnadze did not rule out that the opposition parties might secure majority of seats in the new Parliament.

“Of course this [opposition’s majority in the Parliament] will be unfavorable. So I urge voters to make a wise decision on November 2 [parliamentary elections],” Eduard Shevardnadze said.

He also said “there are some parties in the opposition with whom I can cooperate.”
