By empty (2/18/2004 issue of the CACI Analyst)
Embattled Adjar Supreme Council Chairman Aslan Abashidze said on 18 February that he will travel to Tbilisi on 20 February to meet with President Saakashvili only if the Georgian authorities begin an objective investigation of alleged attempts by the previous Georgian leadership to assassinate Abashidze. Saakashvili said earlier on 18 February that Abashidze \"can and must\" come to Tbilisi. Saakashvili said he will not travel to Batumi to meet with Abashidze there if the latter refuses to come to Tbilisi.Visit also
