PM Kvirikashvili visits Armenian church on Easter
"Georgia is proud of its Armenian sons and daughters"

Georgia’s Prime Minister Giorgi Kvirikashvili has this afternoon visited an Armenian church in Tbilisi to celebrate Easter together with Georgia’s Armenian citizens.

Armenians are one of the largest ethnic minority groups in Georgia.

Kvirikashvili congratulated them on Easter and wished them peace and prosperity in this country.

The Prime Minister talked about the long-lasting friendship between the two nations and said: "Our friendship is very precious and deserves to be taken care of.”

"Georgia is proud of its Armenian sons and daughters and we are happy that we together are building a country which is a very good example for the world of being a home to so many cultural diversities.”

Earlier today Georgia’s President Giorgi Margvelashvili congratulated Easter to those celebrating today.

Most of the Christian world celebrates Easter today.

Meanwhile most of Georgia’s population (about 84 percent) are Orthodox Christian and this year they will celebrate Easter slightly later – on May 1.
