About 20 employees of Rustavi Azot chemical plant in Rustavi, a town 20km south of the capital, have been holding a demonstration since this morning demanding increased salaries.

They say that if the management refuses to increase their salaries, they will block the entrance to the plant and set up tents.

The management has offered protesters to enter the office and hold negotiations, to which the protesters have not agreed.

Employees gathered at the central entrance of Rustavi Azot plant demand that the management go out and give an answer as to whether they are going to fulfill their request and increase their salaries or not.
