It is the greatest honor to be a soldier of your homeland and you truly excel in your deeds and duties. Accept my deepest gratitude for this, Mamuka Bakhtadze, Prime Minister of Georgia, said addressing the servicemen participating in the event marking the Day of Defense Forces today.
The Prime Minister focused on the stamina, dedication and heroism of Georgian officers and noted that Georgian army has made a tremendous contribution to the building of independent and democratic Georgia.
"It has been 28 years that military forces of Georgia exist and all these 28 years were full of challenges. You make the greatest contribution of all in the success of Georgia towards our European and Euro-Atlantic integration," said Mamuka Bakhtadze.
The Prime Minister recalled the officers fallen in the fights for territorial integrity of Georgia and international peace-keeping missions with great honor. "Our military heroes sacrificed their lives to their homeland, its freedom and dignity. They have thus joined eternity and their names will remain immortal. I bow to them and their families and treasure their legacy" noted the Prime Minister of Georgia.

"They are safeguarding the global peace together with the military personnel of our partner countries and friendly nations. We greatly value their contribution to the safer existence on the planet and take great pride in making Georgian courage world-known through their dedication and perseverance. Sovereign consciousness of any nation and country is measured by its attitude towards its army and servicemen, towards those who sacrifice their lives to the sovereignty, freedom, dignity and security of their homeland," the Prime Minister said.
