ArmInfo.  A group of Georgian  doctors will be sent to Armenia to assist in the fight against a new  type of coronavirus (Covid-19). As ArmInfo was informed in the press  service of the RA Embassy in Georgia, Georgian Prime Minister Giorgi  Gakharia said this during a government meeting today.

The Georgian Prime Minister emphasized that not a single country in  the world is capable of withstanding the crisis caused by this  pandemic.

At the same time, he said that Georgia is discussing the issue of  assisting neighboring Armenia and the relevant instructions were  given to the Ministry of Health.

"We should show mutual support in relation to each other. As you know  in our neighboring countries, the situation has been quite aggravated  in the last period. I personally contact the Prime Minister every  day, as well as the ministers of health, economy and the foreign  ministry. We have already identified what kind of help is needed to  our neighbors. Mutual assistance is extremely important. The Ministry  of Health has already been given the task of preparing the assistance  that Georgia can provide to neighboring Armenia.  As you can see,  this will be primarily the assistance of medical staff, "Gakharia  emphasized.

It should be noted that the Georgian side has repeatedly expressed  its readiness to assist Armenia in the fight against the pandemic.  Parties reported holding consultations in this direction. Moreover,  the Armenian community of Georgia has already sent 27 mechanical  ventilation devices to their homeland, and fundraising is also  underway.
