Georgia's Labour Party has today made an application to the Central Election Commission to conduct a referendum on the withdrawal of Georgian troops from Afghanistan.

One of the party leaders, Georgi Gugava said the Central Election Commission in the next elections must hold a referendum and determine the opinion of the people regarding the participation of the Georgian contingent in the Afghan mission.

Ten Georgian servicemen were killed, while 36 were injured as a result of two attacks in Afghanistan last month.

According to the Labour Party, Georgian servicemen in Afghanistan should not remain after such attacks.
