US Ambassador to Georgia Kelly Degnan has opened the new Kvareli American Shelf in partnership with the Kvareli EuroClub on Thursday.

“More than 130 years ago, Ilia Chavchavadze wrote: “If God wills the United States to fulfill its wish for the sake of humankind, it would be a great example for Europe.” Ambassador Degnan visited the city where Chavchavadze was born and told students at Kvareli School #1 that today it is Georgia’s wish for a democratic future that is inspiring the world,” the Embassy said.
