In the second part of the meeting the floor was given a guest from Sweden:
-I’ve heard much about Georgia, as about developing country. I am glad to have an opportunity to learn more about your problems. I have quite much experience of work in politics which I would share with pleasure. Of course, you have to do hard work to achieve such results, but you have already started doing it. The main thing is you had the desire and the results will not keep you waiting.
The project is implemented with the support of the organization NED – National Endowment for Democracy, USA.
