Irakli Kobakhidze, the candidate for the position of the Prime Minister of Georgia, on Wednesday, said construction of the Anaklia deep sea port would be “one of the main priorities” of his Government.
"A special concern will be the proper start and implementation of the Anaklia project. Work has already started, and this year a private company will be selected to lead the construction”, he said.
Kobakhidze added the state planned to make “multi-million”-dollar investments in the project.
Development of other ports and “strengthening of resources” will also be in the Government’s plans, the candidate for PM said, noting projects for upgrades to Poti port and construction of the Black Sea submarine electricity cable project, intended to connect the grids of the South Caucasus and European Union member states.
