We should pay respect to people who sacrificed their lives in order for us to live in a free country. Such a statement made today one of the leaders of European Georgia, MP Giga Bokeria with regards to 12th year anniversary of Russia - Georgian war.

“Today is the day when we should pay respect to people who sacrificed their lives in order for us to live in a free country, in unoccupied Georgia. Their sacrifice, Georgian society and belated but still principled support from the free world saved our statehood. It’s our duty to take care of this achievement and we should understand that one can"t lie to himself, an enemy should be called an enemy. We must do everything in order to avoid a big-scale war in the future, but first of all, we should avoid the danger for our statehood and freedom”, - concluded Bokeria.
