Additionally, former Georgian Ambassador to Lietuva Khatuna Salukvadze has published a statement on her Facebook page addressing the citizens of Lietuva to actively continue their visits to Georgia and tell their friends to visit the country too.
"Dear friends from Lietuva, Putin prohibited Russian airlines and tourists from coming to Georgia. Just like before, this embargo will only strengthen the economy of my country. I know how much you love Georgia and Georgians love Lithuanian tourists as well... Do not let the aggressor oppress us", reads the statement.
