 "In 2008, when Georgia was in hardship, Japan was one of the first from those states that gave its hand. They gave us great political assistance. After Russian invasion, the Japanese assisted us financially. Everywhere, we cooperate with Japanese, we feel that this is the nation that understands and supports us in every aspect. That is why, now, when they are in so much trouble, the whole world pays attention to them. We must not stay indifferent. This is a very big nation, making big contributions in the civilization of today's world and is a great friend of Georgia. We should always help our friends, and in a decisive moment, when they are in need of solidarity and assistance, we should express them." - President of Georgia claimed.
