PM Kobakhidze: Three years have passed since Shovi tragedy; government will do everything to prevent such threats

“Three years have passed since the tragedy that shook our entire nation. Once again, I offer my deepest condolences to the families of the victims,” Prime Minister of Georgia Irakli Kobakhidze told journalists in Shovi.

As the head of government noted, the state will do everything within its power to avert similar threats in the future.

“For every single one of us, this was a profound tragedy, and crucially, we must do everything to ensure that preventative measures are taken in advance to avert such tragedies hereafter. Studies have been conducted with a Swiss firm, specifically concerning glacial processes, yielding preliminary research findings. The state will do everything possible to prevent such threats moving forward. This was an immense tragedy for our country, above all for the families of those who lost their lives, and I extend my heartfelt condolences to them once again,” Irakli Kobakhidze stated.
