Germany is determined to provide substantial help. So are the Netherlands and other states. But a day will come when we have to count on our own resources.

I believe that with the help of foreign countries - and under that condition only, because they have no other source of financing - the new government may temporarily extricate Georgia from the current situation.

I think my resignation was the only way to avoid bloodshed.

But eradicating corruption is not enough to sustain a country.

But we cannot rely on foreign help indefinitely.
