I’m surprised at the attention that the internal State Department memo has received here. Such a statement made the US Ambassador to Georgia.

“I have to say I’m surprised at the attention that the internal State Department memo has received here, because that is an internal memo to the State Department, helping people in the State Department, who wanted to be more inclusive in the workplace, find ways to talk about that. I will say that it has nothing to do with Georgia. It’s nothing that we published here in Georgia.

As for the language, the Georgian language also doesn’t have he and she which I think is interesting. I am a proud mother, a proud wife, a proud sister. My children, my parents, I think that we all should strive to use language that treats others with respect”, - said Robin Dunnigan.
