Khidasheli comments on non-participation of Georgian soldiers in "Anaconda-2016" exercises

Georgian Defense Minister Tina Khidasheli commented on the situation around the non-participation of the republic in NATO exercise "Anaconda-2016" in Poland.

"Of course, I'm always ready for any report to the Supreme Commander of the country, but I certainly want the society to know that I provided full information to the Security Council secretary in presence of the president," Sputnik Georgia quoted her as saying.

According to her, Georgia timely reported its partners from Poland, the United States and NATO about the detection of chickenpox among two soldiers 24 hours before departure on exercises. Due to the fact that this disease spreads very easily and quickly, seven soldiers were already infected.
