At the event, State Minister of Georgia for Reintegration made a speech and said that it is remarkable that honoring the victims of genocide is happening in Tbilisi and that Georgia will continue its course of good neighborly and cooperative relations with the peoples of Caucasus.

In their speeches, the guests also talked about vandalism, which peoples of North Caucasus suffered during the mass eviction.

At the event a documentary film on the eviction process was shown. Famous Georgian poets read their rhymes dedicated to this tragedy.

On 23 February, 1944, during one day and night, by the order of the Soviet Government, Chechen and Ingush people, charged with cooperation with Germany, were driven out from their land and sent into exile in the Central Asian countries. Half of the Vainakh population died during this event. In 2004, the European Parliament officially recognized this eviction as an act of genocide of Chechen and Ingush peoples.
