Georgia’s First Lady Tamar Bagrationi pays a working visit to Italy.

Tamar Bagrationi visited the Central Archives of Italy (Archivio Centrale dello Stato) and met its director, Gabriele Capone.

According to the Presidential Administration, Georgian Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary Tamar Liluashvili attended the meeting.

First Lady inspected the housed materials that reflect historic relations between Georgia and Italy.

The Italian side presented the First Lady of Georgia with copies of two royal decrees issued by King Victor Emmanuel III of Italy. The decree from 1911 concerns the establishment of an Italian consulate in Tiflis, while the decree from 1914 relates to the establishment of a Consulate General of the Kingdom of Italy in Tiflis.

These documents serve as significant historical sources reflecting the relations between Georgia and Italy during that period.

The parties reviewed future cooperation-related issues, focusing on research programs for students and young researchers, sharing professional experience and access to archive materials.

Tamar Bagrationi thanked the Italian side for hospitality and handing over historic documents to Georgia.
