PM Kobakhidze: On March 31, 1991, Georgia, including Abkhazia and Samachablo, voted for sovereignty
“March 31 is a remarkable day in Georgia’s recent history. On this day in 1991, a nationwide referendum was held, during which the entire Georgian population, including those in Abkhazia and Samachablo, united in voting for the sovereign future of Georgia, making their voice heard across the world,” stated Georgian Prime Minister Irakli Kobakhidze.
The Prime Minister further emphasised that the March 31st referendum laid an unshakeable legal foundation upon which the modern Georgian state is built.
“It is our duty to cherish this invaluable achievement, to honourably protect and strengthen the sovereignty established by the 1991 referendum,” the Prime Minister declared.
