Georgia, Tbilisi, March 25 / Trend N.Kirtzkhalia /

A protest rally demanding George W. Bush Street in Tbilisi to be renamed was held today.

People chanted: "We do not need street Bush!"

"Bush deserves nothing else except these boots from the Georgian people," the protesters said.

The rally was largely attended by citizen supporting the country's opposition, who called on the United States "to take out Bush's remains like Mikhail Saakashvili from the country."

Organizer of the protest, Zaza Svanadze, demanded the street to be called its historic name, Melaanskaya.

The street was renamed in 2005 when then U.S. President Bush visited Georgia.
