Pope Francis on Friday
described Georgia as a country that has helped bridge different
cultures during a meeting with authorities and diplomats in
Tbilisi.
He said the country's history has fully placed it "within
the bedrock of European civilization".
At the same time, the pontiff noted, Georgia is a "natural
bridge between Europe and Asia" that has made trade and dialogue
possible over the centuries, and facilitated relations between
different worlds.
