📵 Failure of facebook, telegram and messengers.
Users from different cities report that they can’t open websites and messengers. I reconnected now from "Magti" to "Geocell" and everything worked. Although it doesn't seem to be because of the provider.

🇦🇲🇬🇪🇷🇺 The Armenian authorities intend to subsidize ferry service between the ports of Poti (Georgia) and the Caucasus (Russia).
The Armenian government has already made an appropriate decision.
According to Minister of Economy Vahan Kerobyan, "for many years, Armenia periodically faces the problem of closing "Upper Lars" on the Russian-Georgian border when importing and exporting goods. At a time when food security is becoming a key issue, a fundamental solution is needed. We propose to subsidize regular ferry service between Poti and the port of Kavkaz at a frequency of twice a week."
📍In response, Armenian Prime Minister Nikol Pashinyan reminded that this is not the first attempt to establish a ferry service, but hopes that this project will still work.

📉💵 Georgia will lose more than $1 billion in 2022, and the economy will face an imminent decline due to the war in Ukraine
This information was reported by the Chairman of the Parliamentary Committee on Finance and Budget Kovzanadze.
"The Russian-Ukrainian war is a geopolitical shock that will inevitably be transmitted to the economy. It is difficult to measure its impact. I can definitely say that this will definitely be transferred to the economy. Both Russia and Ukraine are among our main trading partners. Russia is in second place, Ukraine is in fifth place. The consequence will be a reduction in exports, a reduction in remittances, tourism will not be like this before, and there will be a noticeable decline in the economy."

👮♀️ Georgian police arrested 13 members of the organized criminal group who committed fraudulent actions against foreign tourists.
In particular, the detainees, through deception and threats, physical and psychological pressure, forced tourists to pay illegal, unreal, large amounts of money for the ordered services. This was especially true for nightclubs and establishments in Tbilisi.
Usually, the scheme was as follows: a person ordered dishes or alcohol from the menu, and he/she was told to pay the price 10 times higher.
❗️If this happens to you or your acquaintances, feel free to call 112.
