🇬🇪🇺🇦🇵🇱🇪🇪🇱🇻🇱🇹 13 April 2022: The presidents of Poland and the Baltic states arrived in Ukraine - this has already happened 14 years ago in the history of Georgia.
On August 12, 2008, while Russian tanks were standing a few kilometers from Tbilisi, a TU-154 with the leaders of Poland, Ukraine and the Baltic states landed in the country. After the negotiations, they took part in a rally near the parliament, which was convened in support of the unity of Georgia.
«Our visit is an expression of solidarity of our five states with the Georgian people who have become victims of aggression," Lech Kaczynski said, "we know that today Georgia, tomorrow Ukraine, the day after tomorrow the Baltic states, and then, perhaps, my country." His words, as we can see, turned out to be prophetic.

According to an updated TBC Capital study, in March 2022, the number of real estate transactions increased by 22.8% compared to the same period last year and by 18.6% compared to February.

🙈🇷🇺🇺🇦 Russian border guards on the border with Georgia have damaged the passport of a citizen of Ukraine.
According to eyewitnesses, at the Verkhny Lars land border checkpoint, a Russian border guard officer wrote the phrase "Glory to Russia" in the Ukrainian passport of a girl who was passing control.
ℹ️ From Russia to Georgia by land, according to my information from drivers, Georgian employees and volunteers, from 30 to 100 Ukrainians arrive per day. Earlier, the Russian army allowed them to leave their hometowns only towards the Russian Federation.

🛫🇬🇪 Next week it will be known whether Georgian Airways will be able to continue its activities.
The fact is that due to a debt of 176 million lari (~57 million dollars), since December 31, 2021, it has been in rehabilitation mode, and an agreement with the state and the main creditor to continue its activities has not yet been reached, which casts doubt on its ability to work fully.

🇬🇪 April 14 is the Mother Tongue Day in Georgia.
It was established in memory of the events of April 1978. 44 years ago, mass demonstrations in defense of the Georgian language took place in Tbilisi, thanks to which it retained the status of the state language in the Constitution of the Georgian SSR.
👅 The modern Georgian language has 17 dialects, it consists of 33 letters, there are no uppercase and uppercase letters, there are no feminine and masculine genders.
❗️ For those coming to Georgia, the difficulties of learning the language are associated with several factors:
✔️ the circle is often English speaking
✔️ even if you learned a lot of words and phrases, it will be difficult to understand without months of practice, what you say
✔️ Georgian is used in few places in the world, so people don't spend energy to study, unless you are planning to live a long time in the country
✔️ no concept of the kind familiar pronouns "he, she, it": all replace the word "is"
✔️ there are only 5 vowels (ა — a, ე — e, ი — and ო — o, უ - y )
✔️ in the Georgian language there are two letters T, K and P, which are pronounced differently
✔️ complex verbs (their conjugation and tenses, this is a separate topic)
✔️ the language is very fast and emotional, with a lot of guttural and hoarse sounds
✔️the accents are not pronounced clearly, the words are pronounced fast and like singing
✔️ a lot of difficult-to-reproduce words that are not even pronounced approximately in other languages (gvprtskvnis - გვფრცქვნის - peel off)
❗️It is possible and absolutely necessary to learn the Georgian language if you live in Georgia. At least at a basic level, it will always help you and come in handy.

The politician made such a statement after a meeting of the Georgian parliamentary delegation with the Chairman of the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine and a visit to the cities of Bucha and Irpen.
«Looking at this, we Georgians today remember our own cities from the time of the wars with Russia. Occupied Abkhazia and the Tskhinvali region. We've experienced it too. Our cities and hopes were also bombed and destroyed. So we Georgians understand your pain very well. Dear Ukrainians, it is with the greatest pain that we see your heroic resistance, courage and unconquered hearts. Soon peace will reign in your beautiful country, because the truth is yours. Glory to Ukraine, peace to Ukraine!"
