Transcript of the interview in English:
This year, we are celebrating the Independence Day of Georgia for the second time in the capital of India, in new Delhi. We have also emphasized the fact that it has been 20 years since Georgia and India established diplomatic relations. It has to be noted that a little has been done between our countries during this period, however, last several years have seen a tremendous growth of interest towards Georgia in India. This is definitely the result of the economic success that Georgia has achieved. It is very rare that I meat representatives of Indian business sector and they do not draw parallels between India and georgia in this perspective. I am personally very satisfied of how our relations are developing. There certainly is more to be done by Georgians in India as well as by Indians in Georgia. I am also sure that many business representatives in Georgia will become interested with India, as one-way game is not beneficial for each one of the countries after all. I would like to point out the extent of the warmth that every Georgian feels in India. At the same time, all of the Indians who have had some sort of connection with Georgia, always stress that they feel themselves home there. In addition, they are attracted by the business environment that exists in Georgia and the number of successful Indian businesses has grown significantly recently.
