As the election date approaches, there will be many such surprises. There will be many such statements when you are told black on white. There will be an attempt to put ashes in the eyes of many people, - this is how the mayor of Tbilisi, Kakha Kaladze, assessed the cancellation of the invitation of the Prime Minister of Georgia Irakli Kobakhidze to the reception with the President of the United States of America, Joe Biden.
As Kaladze told the journalists, no threat can scare them because they are doing the right thing.
"There was nothing unexpected, it's just surprising, first the invitation and then the cancellation. It's certainly part of the campaign that we've been seeing in recent months, recent years. There is one simple explanation for this - Georgia has protected the national interests of its own country and people, and this attitude will continue in the future. No threat can scare us because we are doing the right thing. "The most important and important thing is that we are doing Georgian work," Kaladze said.
For information, the President of the United States, Joe Biden, will host world leaders and high-ranking UN officials at a traditional reception in New York on September 25. According to "Voice of America", Irakli Kobakhidze, who heads the Georgian delegation to the UN General Assembly, was initially on the list of those invited to the reception of the President, but the Biden administration canceled the invitation. A senior administration official and another congressional source confirmed the cancellation of the invitation to VOA.
