Georgia is launching its own arms production. The President of Georgia Mikheil Saakashvili announced it during the meetings with the participants of the International Olympiad of schoolchildren, Rosbalt reports.

“There was a period after the war on August 2008, when it was difficult for Georgia to purchase weapons and that time our engineers created 100% Georgian production of weapons,” Saakashvili said.

“We want Georgia to become an international center of technology and to export technology as well,” said President of Georgia.
