I congratulate the whole Georgia on the glorious Christmas day, the day of kindness and hope, - Prime Minister of Georgia Giorgi Gakharia said.

"Christmas is a celebration of kindness, hope, renewal, beginning of a new life. We are celebrating this holiday with this hope and I wish every Georgian that their wishes come true," Giorgi Gakharia said.

The head of government spoke about the key messages of the Patriarch's epistle, noting that it included direct indication that humility and not arrogance, forgiveness and not conflict are the most important things.

"In the end, His Holiness said that this country is ours and it is everyone's obligation, regardless of their political opinion, to take care of this country together. This was the essence of the epistle for me," the Prime Minister said.

The head of government attended the Christmas liturgy at the Holy Trinity Cathedral together with the Speaker of Parliament and members of the Cabinet of Ministers.
