🛠🏗 One of the main Tbilisi sights, Peace Bridge, will be closed for reconstruction.

According to Mayor Kakha Kaladze, the work will begin in July and will last for about two months. According to him, the concrete reinforcement of the bridge is currently deformed and needs to be repaired. There is also a problem with the suspended structures, which resulted in uneven loading on the bridge. In addition, the mayor's office plans to replace part of the bridge's unique lighting. 1 million 400 thousand lari ($530 thousand) were allocated for the reconstruction. During the repair, access to the bridge will be closed to people.
ℹ️ The Peace Bridge is a pedestrian bridge across the Kura River (Mtkvari). It has a 156-meter steel frame covered with glass. The whole structure rests on 4 pillars. The architect of the bridge is the famous Italian specialist Michele de Lucchi. The building opened in 2010.

⚖️ The ex-president of Georgia, Mikheil Saakashvili, appeared for the first time in public since February: the accusation of a politician of abuse of power is being heard in the Tbilisi City Court.
The case concerns the events of 2007, the dispersal of opposition actions and the invasion of special forces into the Imedi television company.
Saakashvili, who had lost a lot of weight, in his speech urged to release him under house arrest or to impose a punishment related to deprivation of liberty and called for punishment of those responsible for his arrest:
“Put an iron bracelet on me, if you want me not to run away - I ask for one thing - an open discussion! Let me participate in the debate and let the people decide if you are right or I am. I appeal to the Speaker of the Parliament, you must apologize for bringing me to this situation. You must apologize to the MEPs, my family, me, the Ukrainian authorities and the Georgian people. You put me in this position. I want to say that everyone who betrayed Ukraine and Georgia should be punished with the toughest sanctions.”
