Georgian President Salome Zurabishvili and Parliament Speaker Archil Talakvadze stated that the two countries, Georgia and the US, share common values.
Zurabishvili said that she spent 12 years in the US and the years made a big influence on her future life and career.
My daughter was also born in the US. However, this is a personal connection and the state-to-state relations stand above one’s personal attitude. Our relationship is first of all based on common values,” Zurabishvili said.
Acting US Ambassador to Georgia Elizabeth Rood stated that it was a pleasure for her to celebrate the date with the Georgian PM, president and the parliament speaker.
