Civil Georgia has a newspaper round-up looking at the dismissal of Foreign Minister Salome Zourabichvili. The ex-FM has now announced her intention to run in the 2008 parliamentary elections. Zourabichvili was speaking on the first edition of a new Rustavi-2 talk show - Free Topic. The broadcast also contained sections with pro-government and opposition political leaders and NGO representatives. The show was the first to be broadcast following the cancellation of the majority of discussion programmes in 2004.
