The President of Georgia, Salome Zurabishvili, entered the session hall together with the temporary representative of Ukraine. Zurabishvili’s annual speech began with a minute of silence and the Ukrainian national anthem.
The President of Georgia noted that the selfless struggle against Russian aggression only leads to respect, solidarity and support, and added that Georgia stood and stands by Ukraine and Ukrainians.
Zurabishvili addressed the President of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelensky: “In my parliamentary speech, I appealed to the Georgian government to return our ambassador to Ukraine, and, today, from this tribune, I address my colleague and friend, the President of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelensky, and ask him to return the ambassador so that the connection between the two nations, in these difficult times, can be fully strengthened and closer and more unwavering.”
