Demonstrations being staged in Abkhazia with Opposition against law passed by Parliament

The opposition of Abkhazia held demonstrations, closing the key transport intersections leading to Sukhumi. This comes after the arrest of five politicians opposing the adoption of the investment agreement in the country.

The Parliament of Abkhazia approved the bill yesterday. According to the opposition, the document affects the further implementation of the agreement on investment activities of Russian companies in the country.

Abkhaz President Aslan Bzhania held an emergency Security Council meeting in connection with the fact that supporters of the arrested opposition members blocked bridges on the central highway, demanding the release of the arrested persons.
