Products provided by the beneficiaries of the programme, as well as other Georgian companies, were delivered to 90 Ukrainian nationals in Tbilisi, with Khidureli saying the move was designed to show “every citizen of Ukraine once again that we, Georgians, are by their side, and we hope the war in their country will end soon.”

Georgia has also provided aid worth one million GEL ($315,000/€279,000) to Ukraine, with The Georgian Post announcing it would deliver humanitarian parcels to Ukrainian citizens free of charge.
Additionally, Georgian citizens and businesses have started to offer free overnight accommodation and other types of assistance to Ukrainians in the country through social media groups since the breakout of the war, while the Georgian National Tourism Administration launched a hotline for the purpose, reachable through the number 0 800 800 909.
Russia began its military assault on Ukraine last week, after President Putin’s announcement of the recognition of the independence of the Ukrainian regions of Donetsk and Luhansk on February 21.
