Georgian President Eduard Shevardnadze said today while commenting the U.S. decision to cut financial aid to Georgia from 2004, that the U.S. will not suspend assistance to Georgia.
?We have definite problems. We admit that Georgia failed to meet some of its commitments. But, we will settle this problem and improve our work,? President Shevardnadze said in his radio broadcast on September 29. He added that the cooperation with the U.S. would continue in future.
Thomas C. Adams, Acting Coordinator of U.S. Assistance to Europe and Eurasia in the Bureau of European and Eurasian Affairs of the U.S. Department of State, who visited Georgia on September 24, said that the U.S. would reduce financial aid to Georgia from 2004, because of Georgia?s failure to implement economic projects within the frames of the financial assistance.
