Chaotic Brawl Erupts in Georgian Parliament Over Foreign Agents Law
A dramatic scene unfolded in the Georgian parliament as chaos erupted during discussions over a draft law on foreign agents
Lawmakers in Bulgaria have voted to reverse last week's decision not to convene until after the presidential elections on November 06.
The move, which would have resulted in a month-long holiday, has been foiled by discontent from the opposition in the urgent need to change the Electoral Code just weeks out of the election.
Other pending issues, such as Bulgaria's bill on the Belene nuclear plant project and the 2017 budget, also need to be addressed by Parliament's floor.
As many as 177 MPs backed an end to the "holiday", with zero opposing and just 10 abstaining.
A month-long hiatus of plenary sessions would have effectively blocked legislative activity as laws and amendments can only be passed by full Parliament.
A three-day break to plenary sessions has also been approved by a 113-45 majority, with 7 abstentions.
