π¬πͺπβ‘οΈπ·πΊ The truck that exploded on the Crimean bridge arrived in Russia from Georgia.
This was announced by the chairman of the investigative committee of the Russian Federation Bastrykin at a meeting with Putin: "We have already established the route of the lorry which exploded. It drove through Bulgaria, Georgia, Armenia, North Ossetia, and the Krasnodar Territory".
βοΈFrom Bulgaria, the cargo arrived by sea to the Georgian port Poti, then went to Armenia, where the cargo was cleared according to the rules of the customs union - this is a typical route for cargo traveling to Russia. Then the truck again drove into Georgia, and from it - to the territory of the Russian Federation through the Upper Lars checkpoint. According to the Russian authorities, the masterminds, perpetrators and customers of the explosion were Ukrainian special services, but they were assisted by citizens of Russia and foreign countries.

Rare footage of one of the most remote and hard-to-reach regions of Georgia. The road there is closed for the winter and will open only in the spring. Only a few families constantly live in Tusheti in winter.

π Tsinandali is a site of cultural significance.
The founder of Georgian romanticism, Prince Alexander Chavchavadze, made this estate a cultural centre for the country, and to this day it hosts exhibitions, events and master classes.
Altogether, the estate encompasses a memorial house, landscape gardens and hotel, plus of course a wine cellar and historic winery β this is even said to be where Georgian wine was first bottled.
Comically, I am not passionate about wine although I was born in Georgia. How come? Well, maybe loving wine is not about a place you were born in? Thatβs my typical excuse.
