I would like to congratulate you on the Day of the State Flag. We must remember that we have one flag, one coat of arms, one anthem, and one homeland. Our coat of arms bears the national motto – "Strength is in Unity". I wish our citizens and the Georgian people to always embody this unity, Shalva Papuashvili, Speaker of the Parliament of Georgia, extended his greetings on the Day of the State Flag from Bakhmaro.

To mark the occasion, the Speaker, along with representatives of the legislative and local governments, visited Bakhmaro, where a symbolic six-meter-high national flag monument was sculpted from snow especially for the day.

The Day of the State Flag of Georgia has been celebrated since 2012, following a decision by the State Council of Heraldry.
