Georgian diplomatic missions abroad, under the guidance of the Coordination Council of Georgia and in coordination with the Central Office of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, continue to assist Georgian citizens abroad under the established criteria.

As the Ministry of Foreign Affairs informed InterPressNews, as of April 20, the diplomatic missions of Georgia provided assistance to 9058 citizens, while 6747 citizens were sent to the homeland by flights organized by the Coordinating Council.

"Information on the assistance rendered to Georgian citizens living abroad is updated on the website of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Georgia every day.

As it is known, in order to effectively organize the gradual return of citizens to their homeland, citizens must fill in a special electronic application, which is published on the website of the Ministry and on the websites of Georgian diplomatic missions. The relevant decision are made after the information provided in the applications is processed,” reads the statement.
