🇬🇪⚽️🥇 Dinamo Tbilisi became the Georgian Football Champion in 2022.
In the most difficult struggle, they won back the backlog from DInamo Batumi after the first half of the championship and took the gold. For the last three years, Dinamo from the capital and Adjara have been taking championships in rotation: 2020 - Tbilisi, 2021 - Batumi, 2022 Tbilisi. Should we expect revenge from the seaside team next season?
It is noteworthy that Lokomotiv Tbilisi dropped out of the top league, scoring only 8 points in 36 matches with a goal difference of 28:101. This is surprising, given that they recently, in European competitions, beat the strong Russian Dinamo.

🏺Not only Georgian wine, but also perfumes in Qvevri shaped bottles will soon appear in Georgia.
The limited edition bottles will go on sale in 2023. This is a joint project of Georgian designer Zviad Tsikolia (known for branded watches) and French perfumer Antoine Lie. Earlier, the Georgian master has already used the theme of an earthen vessel for wine. For example (on the photo), these were souvenirs in the form of a rocket or earrings with original elements.

Rare footage for the Georgian capital. Although, it seems that in the last three winters, snow began to fall on Mtatsminda much more often than locals tell about it.

🇬🇪↔️🇺🇦 Recriminations between Georgian and Ukrainian officials continue despite many common ground.
📍During the briefing, Chargé d'Affaires of Ukraine in Georgia Andriy Kasyanov said: “Despite numerous requests, we have not received a response from the Georgian government regarding the supply of weapons, ammunition, military equipment and other equipment to Ukraine. We still believe that our appeal for military assistance to fraternal Georgia at a time when it was about survival, life and death was completely justified, fair and necessary, since at one time the government of Ukraine helped in the evacuation of Georgian refugees in the mountains Svaneti, provided Georgia with the strongest humanitarian assistance in 1993, as well as military-technical and political assistance in 2008".
📍The executive secretary of the ruling Georgian Dream party Mamuka Mdinaradze has already commented on the words of the representative of Kyiv in Tbilisi:
“For the first time I hear about generators… For the first time I hear this topic and I will find out. When the representative of Ukraine says that Georgia should supply weapons and military equipment to Kyiv, it is obvious that they objectively have no special expectations regarding the supply of special weapons or military equipment from Georgia. The message that this person voiced is that Georgia should be involved in an armed conflict. Our country provides Ukraine with unconditional political and humanitarian assistance beyond the scope and beyond its capabilities.”
❗️Earlier, Prime Minister Irakli Garibashvili, speaking with condolences to the families of the Georgian soldiers who died in Ukraine, said: “We fought three times, my friends, we fought three times since we gained independence, this is enough. We want to unite the country peacefully, not by war, and this is a sound national policy.”
ℹ️ Georgia has long been ranked first in the number of humanitarian aid to Ukraine sent through the mail.
