Reforms and projects are being implemented at central and local levels to make people live with more dignity in our cities and villages. The Georgian government and local self-governments strengthen the country, whose course is European. We want, with our values, with our unique language that we are listening to now and by protecting Georgian traditions, to become full-fledged members of the big European family,” Rustavi mayor stated.
