It is pitiful that the problem related to the viticulture will not be settled in the near future. The government of Georgia failed to answer questions related to loss of the wine market.
“Not only Russian market but also the market of the European Union are closed for the Georgian wine,” noted Kukava.
“The Georgian wine is locked in Georgia and it is not only the problem of the Ministry of Agriculture of Georgia, but the problem of the wrong policy of the government of Georgia,” stated Kukava.

Opposition has been mobilized in front of the building of the Parliament of Georgia and plans to hold a rally near the building of Tbilisi City Court.
Maia Nadiradze declared about that after the meeting of inter-factional group held on Tuesday, where the issues related to the vintage 2007 were discussed.

Nadiradze remarked that the fact that the peasants failed to receive GEL 0,70 for a kilo of grapes like the previous year was preconditioned by a bountiful harvest of grapes.
