Oleg Bartsits, Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Abkhazia, congratulated his countrywomen on International Women's Day, March 8.

"Please accept my sincere congratulations on International Women's Day, March 8!

This colourful spring holiday is a symbol of beauty, wisdom, and inner strength.

Women have always played a special role in society. The history of Abkhazia holds many examples of women's dedication and strength. You endured the difficult trials of the Patriotic War of the People of Abkhazia in 1992-1993 and the difficult post-war period with courage and incredible resilience.

Today, thanks to your hard work, responsibility, and dedication, significant results are being achieved in a wide variety of fields. At the same time, you carefully preserve family values ​​and provide care and warmth to your loved ones.

I sincerely wish you good health, prosperity, happiness, and peace. May every day bring joy, new opportunities, and well-deserved recognition of your achievements.

Happy holiday, Happy International Women's Day!"
