2/27/2013

The President of Georgia left for the Republic of Azerbaijan. He arrived with the First Lady at the airport with no security and personally drove the car.

“It’s already been a week since I started travelling like this – as it became clear, that the Security Service has serious problems. Nobody can interfere with me travelling, meeting people and fulfilling my duties. I think it is absolutely unnecessary to dramatize and speculate the situation more. We are leaving for the Republic of Azerbaijan on an official visit now.  I would also like to touch on the statement I made about banks yesterday. First of all, I would like to mention that I had certain information regarding this issue, but fortunately after checking, this information was not confirmed. I am very sorry if I said something wrong. This is true and they don’t deny it but if I named the banks incorrectly then I did not do it on purpose, and I did not want to create any problems for the banks. It is my desire for the banking sector to be strong and independent in Georgia. I am observing our banks with great attention. So that they do not end up in hands of a country which does not have a healthy interest” – stated the President of Georgia.
