The Deputy Director of the Information Centre, Irina Shamiladze met the guests to discuss the Centre’s goals, priorities of its activities, and ongoing and planned projects. Discussions focused on the challenges involved in raising the population’s awareness about Georgia’s European and Euro-Atlantic integration and the ways to fight against anti-Western propaganda.
