Andria Jaghmaidze, Head of the Public Relations Service of the Georgian Orthodox Church (GOC) clarifies the New Year address of Catholicos-Patriarch of All Georgia, His Holiness and Beatitude Ilia II.
Andria Jaghmaidze wrote on the social network that the GOC PR Service has no link to the video and it had to be mentioned that it was the edited address.
According to Jaghmaidze, some people criticized the GOC PR Service for this video address.
“I won’t explain in detail for some reasons, the truth is that neither the PR Service nor I have anything to do with it. At the same time, due to the video’s being edited, it is not posted on our website. I believe it had to be mentioned that this was the edit and not the original,” he said.
