Ambassador Kelly Degnan visited Ilia Chavchavadze Museum



The concept of “Founding Fathers” is near and dear to American’s hearts. In this country, Ilia Chavchavadze is considered the founding father of modern Georgia. His multifaceted work and rich legacy inspires admiration and pride throughout the nation, and it brings our Mission great pride to know that 30 years of U.S.-Georgia partnership was founded on Iliaesque pro-western principles. On her official visit to Mtskheta-Mtianeti, Ambassador Degnan visited Ilia’s house in Saguramo and learned interesting stories about his life.
