“Georgian culture is the headmost key to our diplomacy and a key to the full-fledged EU membership of Georgia. As you may know, physics, chemistry and geometry are the same throughout the world, only culture is unique and I believe the West – EU, and USA – needs us with our unique culture”, - the Chair of the Diaspora and Caucasus Issues Committee, Beka Odisharia stated at the Special Session of the Advisory Council of the Culture Committee.
