The cycle of public lectures on the topic "Protection of Georgia's sovereignty by legal means" continues. Head of the Department of State Representation in International Courts, Nino Nikolaishvili led the lecture at the Ministry of Justice today.

The speaker spoke about the results of the occupation and the current situation. Special attention was paid to the difficult and successful struggle that the Ministry of Justice waged in Strasbourg and Hague against Russia to protect the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Georgia.

Among other things, the students were also informed about the importance of the facts that the Strasbourg and Hague courts recognize the territorial integrity of our country and confirm the occupation by Russia for the purpose of further de-occupation of Georgia and protection of sovereignty.

The lecture was conducted in an interactive mode, within which the speaker answered the students' questions and listened to their opinions.

Face-to-face communication with the public is a priority of the Ministry of Justice. The cycle of public lectures began on May 26, 2022 marking the Independence Day and is being held throughout Georgia in order to inform the public about issues of state importance.
