We expect a lot of gold medals and medals of all kinds, and we expect the Georgian flag to be on the pedestal as many times as possible and the Georgian anthem to be performed as often as possible. The Government, the Ministry, the federations, the Olympic Committee and each athlete have done everything for this”, she said.
Georgian Prime Minister Irakli Kobakhidze will attend the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games in Paris on Friday.
Kobakhidze said the Georgian team had “every starting point to win as many medals as possible and have more champions” at the Games.
