In these challenging times the Government of Georgia extends its heartfelt condolences to the Afghan government and the families of the victims,” Kvirikashvili said.
We believe that this attack and other similar actions aimed against freedom, peace and innocent people represent the greatest crime against humanity. We hope that as a result of joint efforts of the international community, elimination of violent extremism and restoration of security across the world will become possible.”
Kvirikashvili added Georgia supported the Afghan government's countermeasures aimed at eradicating the challenges facing the country and reinforcing its stability and security.
