🚫💳 The National Bank of Georgia gives an explanation about the attempt to use the Russian Mir card in the country.
According to the statement, the service of the Mir card by companies operating in Georgia is a violation. In addition, this payment system violates the law on occupation. Administrative sanctions will be applied to such legal entities, up to closure.
«The Russian Mir system is not serviced in the country by any commercial bank or service provider, and if this appears, we ask you to immediately inform the investigative services and the police about it."
❗️As previously reported, one of the major shopping centers in Batumi (owned by Turkish owners) published a message and pasted stickers at the entrance with information that such cards will be accepted by them and work without restrictions.

📈🪑 Prices for furniture and wood products in Georgia will increase by 20% in the near future.
According to the statements of the representatives of the furniture cluster, raw materials from Russia, Belarus and Ukraine account for more than 20% of our consumption. Imports from these countries will be closed for a long time, and new ones (China, Romania, Bulgaria) are more difficult in logistics and more expensive. Semi-finished products are not produced in Georgia, so the country imports 50% of raw materials from Turkey, whose market also depends on Russia.

🎉 In Georgia it’s Novruz Bayram - the day of the vernal equinox.
Taking into account several days of snowfall in Tbilisi, I really want the heat. In 2010, Novruz Bayram was declared a national holiday in Georgia and has been widely celebrated in the center of residence of the Azerbaijani diaspora - the city of Marneuli for many years.
ℹ️ Azerbaijanis are the second largest national group in Georgia (6.3% of the population ~ 230,000 people).

🇺🇦🇬🇪 Advisor to the President of Ukraine Oleksiy Arestovich calls on the population and the military of his country to act according to the principles of Data Tutashkhia.
«He was a famous literary hero of the Georgian epic who opposed tsarism. His name was Date Tutashkhia. He had rules of secrecy and it was like this: if a meeting is scheduled, you come a day earlier or a day later and always survive. This is a rule that we should apply to our positions. I understand that everyone wants to post a photo or write that a rocket has fallen, a place has been bombed, but this will make it easier for the opponent," he said.
ℹ️ Interesting fact: Advisor to the President of Ukraine was born in Georgia (Dedoplitskaro/Kakheti) in 1975 (the year of publication of the novel about the Date of Tutashkhia).

💉🚫 400 thousand Pfizer vaccines will not be used in Georgia - they have expired.
According to the head of the Center for Disease Control Amiran Gamkrelidze, hundreds of thousands of covid-19 vaccines will be disposed of in the country on March 31.
«I am angry at myself and at you," the medic said, "in August-September, we did 20,000 vaccinations a day, and in March 2022, their daily number is only 5000-1500 per day. The vaccine has protected the lives of many people and is helping in the fight against the pandemic, but we have not been able to reach everyone."
ℹ️ Let me remind you that 54% of the adult population in Georgia is now fully vaccinated, and the government has set a plan for 70% until the summer, but experts report that at the current rate, this is impossible.

😉👍 Nikolai Levshits is with you and today I turned 44 years old.
Not only a beautiful figure, but also a reason to stop for a minute, think, look back and look forward. About 10 years ago I said to myself that it was necessary to fill life with the meaning of existence. To be necessary, in demand and useful. For the country, people close to you, friends and even strangers who need support. That's how I live. I help those who fight the regime in Russia and everyone who comes or lives in Georgia, respond to requests from friends, take care of my family and respond daily to hundreds of messages and calls to everyone who writes or calls.
😊 Yes, yes, I will definitely rake your 3000 messages in the telegram in the near future.
️👆Now I want peace in Ukraine most of all, like all of us. I want people to stop dying and bombs to stamp falling. This is the main desire today, along with thoughts about the health and happiness of the wife and three-month-old son. So that they and all people have a peaceful sky over their heads.
❤️ Many thanks to everyone for their help, support, comments, constructive criticism. Together we make blogging better and more useful. There will be interesting announcements in the near future.

I am sure that this will be a very interesting offer for everyone who plans to open a business in the capital. Quiet streets of the Sololaki district with restored beautiful buildings will attract tourists and locals.
According to Tbilisi Mayor Kakha Kaladze, Gudiashvili Square should be economically activated, cafe-bars will be arranged that will make this place a center of attraction.
