President of Georgia Mikheil Saakashvili attended church service dedicated to the Day of Saint George at the Bagrati Temple together with his son and Archbishop Kalistrate today. After the prayer, President spoke about the meaning of the restoration of Bagrati Temple, which he said was a symbol of defeating evil.
`I want to congratulate everybody on this Holy Day. Saint George is a symbol of victory of good on evil and no matter how the events will develop, the evil will never win. This temple is the symbol of this. For centuries, many conquerors assaulted it and ruined it, but despite many obstructions, we have succeeded to bring it to such amazing state. More and more people in Georgia realize today that Georgia is in jeopardy, but I am sure that despite the appeals on destruction and demolition, this is impossible because our people will never accept this. Out country must develop even more,` Saakashvili said.
