Radical opposition has a permission to hold protest actions until May 26, Tbilisi City Hall told Trend on Tuesday.

According to information, the term of the opposition's application will expire on May 25 and after that all protest actions will be considered illegal.

The People's Assembly has filed an application to hold protest actions from May 21 to 25. A parade on Georgia's Independence Day will be held on Rustaveli Avenue in Tbilisi on May 26.

According to opposition leader Nino Burjanadze, on May 25 she will assemble people on the Freedom Square to prevent the country's president to accept May 26 parade. At the same time, leaders of the Georgian Party promise to assemble people in front of the presidential residence.

Georgian radical opposition is holding rallies demanding President Mikheil Saakashvili's resignation for four days already. Saakashvili's ex-associate, former defense minister Irakli Okruashvili, who is hiding from the Georgian justice abroad for several years, promises to come and help the Georgian opposition.
