“On the occasion of the 34th anniversary of the Velvet Revolution (17 November 1989) The Embassy’s staff of Georgia to the Czech Republic gathered together with the Ambassador of Georgia to the Czech Republic, H.E. Ms. Tea Maisuradze to honor the Czech culture and the democratic values that the students of the revolution fought for.
The Embassy’s staff would like to remember all the students who played a key role in the fall of the communist regime in Czechoslovakia.
To symbolically honor them and the Czech culture, they dressed in folk costumes that represent a fragment of the Czech national culture.
On this day, we would like to pay tribute to all those who fought for freedom and democracy 34 years ago. After all, precisely these shared values symbolize the Czech-Georgian friendship already for 30 years.” Said H.E. Ms. Tea Maisuradze the Ambassador of Georgia to the Czech Republic.
