Georgia introduced a visa-free regime for the Chinese and did not support the election of the head of Nagorno-Karabakh

Georgia has abolished the visa regime for Chinese citizens. Prime Minister Irakli Garibashvili announced this at a government meeting in Tbilisi.

According to the official, it is in Georgia's interests to strengthen economic relations with China and attract more investment and tourists. Garibashvili also hopes to increase the number of direct flights from China.

In addition, Georgia did not recognize the presidential elections held in Nagorno-Karabakh on September 9. The inauguration of the new head of Karabakh Samvel Shahramanyan took place in Stepanakert. Thus, Tbilisi supported the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Azerbaijan.
