Merry Christmas to all who celebrate this wonderful holiday on December 25th. Humanity so desperately needs kindness, love & caring for one another during these difficult times. Wishing health, peace & prosperity to you & your loved ones.

Today is one of the most important days in the recent history of 🇬🇪. The 12-year long dispute against the Russian Federation over the August 2008 war ended w/ 🇬🇪 winning the case at the #ECtHR. This victory was inevitable & belongs to each & every Georgian.

Extremely concerned w/decision on prolonging illegal detention of Geo citizen Zaza #Gakheladze for 12+years. This provocation truly reflects Russia’s destructive plans for destabilization in #Georgia. We appeal to int'l community to take strong stance for his immediate release.

The Georgian Defense Readiness Program represents a steadfast commitment between Georgia & the US to improve Georgian forces' combat readiness and further strengthen Black Sea security.

Held very meaningful discussions w/ Charles Michel. The visit is a clear reiteration that our region has a strategic importance for the 🇪🇺. Focused on wide range of issues incl. occupation & global pandemic. 🇬🇪's grateful for the support & truly appreciates the partnership!

Повністю згоден з Salome Zourabichvili, що настав час конкретних пропозицій для 🇺🇦 і 🇬🇪 щодо отримання ПДЧ в NATO і плану вступу в EU. Консолідація зусиль і солідарність сьогодні надважливі. В 🇺🇦 і 🇬🇪 історичне розуміння і взаємна підтримка у питанні миру.

I fully agree with Salome Zourabichvili that it is time for concrete proposals for 🇺🇦 and 🇬🇪 to obtain a NATO MAP and a plan to join EU. Consolidation of efforts and solidarity are crucial today. 🇺🇦 and 🇬🇪 enjoy historic mutual understanding and support in the issue of peace
