According to Sebastian Molineus, Regional Director of the World Bank, the commitment to economic reforms shown by the previous and the current governments of Georgia is a positive thing.

Sebastian Molineus talked to the Georgian Service of Voice of America.

“I have worked in many countries around the world. I like Georgia very much and I’m very positively disposed to it. In Georgia I see a country, whose economic growth model is based on private sector. Despite all the differences that exist within the country’s political circles, everyone agrees that they want open and favorable environment for investors, believes that integration with the European Union is of utmost importance for the country’s development, and no one doubts the necessity of education reforms. If we step back a little and assess the situation, we will see that there are more unifying factors than divisive ones. When you live in Georgia, you can see it very well. The forecast is thus, growth indicator is at 5.2%, Foreign Direct Investments are at 8.2%, as compared to other countries’ 2.5%. The commitment to economic reforms shown by the previous and the current governments is a positive thing. I think the growth will continue,” Sebastian Molineus said.
