Minister of Economy Natia Turnava stated after the Inter-Agency Coordination Council Meeting today that the government does not cosider any full lockdowns of the economy and will impose only targeted restrictions.
"We see the first COVID-cases among businesses - Turnava stated - however, we also see that these businesses return to work later".
According to the Minister, good example is Ajara Textile where 100 employees were COVID-positive, and due to this fact the factory was being closed for a while.
"It is now opening up fully complying with state protocols and recommendations" - Natia Turnava stated. To her this is the strategy that the government will follow. "Ajara Textile has a big role in boosting our exports by 9%" - Turnava said, addind that both Kobuleti and Batumi factories are in order, and Poti will soon follow.
