(civil.ge) - Parliament's Vice Speaker Mikheil Machavariani, while speaking about possible energy blockade by Russia, said on October 30 that the price of Russian gas will increase.

We have information that the gas price will be political instead of economic, Machavariani told reporters. He did not specify the expected price of gas.

This issue will apparently top the agenda of today's closed meeting between parliamentary factions and Prime Minister Zurab Nogaideli, reports Trend.

According to preliminary reports, political and economic issues related to tense Russian-Georgian relations will be discussed at the meeting.
