Civil Georgia reports that the President of Georgia Mikheil Saakashvili congratulated Armenian community on Christmas in the Armenian church in Avlabari district,Tbilisi on January 6. “It is rare in the world history when two nations are linked with thousands of years of co-existence, friendship, brotherhood, mutual support and survival in the most difficult circumstances, in the most difficult historical and geopolitical situations,” said Saakashvili.“These relations between our countries are not based simply on the past, but they are based on what we have in the present and what we definitely will have in future.” “We will never forget and we should not forget the contribution, which Armenians made not only to economic, cultural, spiritual, human development of Georgia, but also the fact that for centuries, including the recent years, many of them were fighting with arms in their hands,” Saakashvili said.
