Georgia, Tbilisi / Тrend corr N. Kirtskhalia / Zurab Noghaideli, the Prime Minister of Georgia, stated that the dispersal of protestors on Rustaveli Avenue was carried out within the limits of the law. "After the opposition blocked the street, we had to resort to special measures," he said.

Noghaideli told journalists at the State Chancellery of Georgia that tear gas, which was used during the dispersal of the rally, does not cause danger to the life and health of human beings.
