May this day be a precursor to success and advancement. There are many beautiful and remarkable traditions and celebrations in Islam, and it is truly a proud thing that in Georgia many people of different faiths live peacefully together. This is our centuries-old tradition that needs care. The Government of Georgia is doing – and will do in the future - everything in order to ensure this.

Our task is to bring the country back on the path of irreversible development as soon as possible. In this process, we have high hopes for the involvement and cooperation, patience and wisdom of each of our citizens”, - said Lia Gigauri.
