A presentation of the Abkhaz-language translation of the Georgian poet Dato Magradze’s poem "Giacomo Ponti" was held at the National Library of Georgia. The event was attended by Giorgi Jincharadze, Chairman of the Government of the Autonomous Republic of Abkhazia.

The event began with welcoming remarks from David Patsatsia, Minister of Internally Displaced Persons from Abkhazia. The poet Dato Magradze discussed the book and treated the audience to readings of selected passages from the poem.

The Abkhaz-language translation of Giacomo Ponti was the result of a collaborative effort between Abkhaz language specialist Irma Osia-Kintsurashvili and an Abkhaz poet.

The event was also attended by Jemal Gamakharia, Chairman of the Supreme Council of Abkhazia; Members of the Parliament of Georgia; deputies of the Supreme Council of Abkhazia; as well as writers and poets.

During the event, the Chairman addressed the IDP (internally displaced persons) applicants from Abkhazia, wishing them success as they take their exams.

"Today is a very important day for all of our entrants, including the young people temporarily displaced from Abkhazia, who play a crucial role in the unification and success of Georgia. I extend my best wishes to them in their exams, as the future of the country, unity, and restoration of trust depend on their achievements.

I also want to highlight that young people living in our occupied territories, just a few kilometers from Zugdidi, face significant educational limitations, particularly in accessing education in the Georgian language. However, I am confident that it is precisely through the involvement of these young people and the strength of public diplomacy that these problems will be resolved and Georgia’s territorial integrity will be restored," stated Giorgi Jincharadze.

The unified national exams began with a Georgian Language and Literature test and will run through 22 July.

32 years have passed since the Battle of Tamishi during the Abkhazian War. On this day, Giorgi Jincharadze, Chairman of the Government of the Autonomous Republic of Abkhazia, along with Jemal Gamakharia, Chairman of the Supreme Council of Abkhazia, and Koba Kobaladze, Director of the State Service of Veterans Affairs, laid wreaths at the memorial to the fallen heroes of the Tamishi battle to honor their memory.

“The Battle of Tamishi is one of the most important events in the recent history of Georgia. It is an example for our youth. Our heroes sacrificed their most precious lives for the unity of Georgia.

I am confident that the idea for which these people sacrificed their lives for our homeland will be realized and Georgia will be united,” Giorgi Jincharadze said.

Members of the government of Abkhazia, deputies of the Supreme Council, representatives of the State Service of Veterans Affairs, and the Union of warriors of Abkhazia were also present at the memorial.

The Abkhazian side landed the marine landing from the Russian military vessel on July 2, 1993, near the borough of Tamishi. After several days of fighting the Georgian side lost more than 300 soldiers. Despite the great casualties, the Georgian forces managed to repel and destroy the enemy and to maintain control over a strategic zone. 

The 64th round of international discussions is currently underway in Geneva.

The Georgian delegation, led by Deputy Foreign Minister Lasha Darsalia, has traveled to the discussions. Among the delegation members is Giorgi Jincharadze, Chairman of the Government of the Autonomous Republic of Abkhazia.

“At this round of international negotiations in Geneva, we will address the various challenges facing our population. This includes systematic illegal detentions, for which we will respond appropriately and seek the unconditional release of those detained, in coordination with our international partners.

Another critical issue will be the return of displaced persons to their homes, along with the urgent matter of banning education in the Georgian language in the occupied territories. We face significant challenges in this area, and this format allows us to discuss these issues more comprehensively with our international partners,” stated Giorgi Jincharadze.

The 64th round of international negotiations in Geneva is scheduled for June 25-26.
