U.S. Hails Georgia’s Progress in Religious Freedom

U.S. Department of State annual Report on International Religious Freedom says that Georgia has achieved “significant improvement” in the protection and promotion of religious freedom.


“We are always eager to commend nations that have made progress over the past year, and the report’s Executive Summary acknowledges countries, such as Georgia and Turkey, that have adopted good practices or have taken steps to promote greater tolerance for all religious faiths,” Colin Powell, the U.S. Secretary of State, said on September 15, while presenting the annual report.


The report reads, “After November 2003, the status of religious freedom improved. Attacks on religious minorities, including violence, seizure of religious literature, and disruption of services and meetings decreased.”
