“To me it’s an honor to make another step along with you towards traffic safety, for our safety and safety of our citizens. The same idea inspired the campaign of the Ministry of Internal Affairs which was launched 1 year ago under the slogan –“For the Sake of Your Safety”. Within the frames of the campaign, week dedicated to traffic safety is currently ongoing, which joins the United Nations global initiative-“Slow Down”. Stand beside all of those people who will contribute to the safety of the traffic movement, because I exactly know that this is a challenge that requires our union and joint action. The Western values for me start from such consciousness and I hope that everyone will share this aspiration"-stated Giorgi Mgebrishvili at the conference.
