The Georgian authorities are concerned about the demographic situation
in the country. Today in Tbilisi Tamara Chiburdanidze promised to
create a foundation for the demographic development of the country
because the birth rate in Georgia is declining.
According to activists, the foundation will focus on neutralizing 15
demographic threats and explain to the population the possible problems
in Georgia in connection with a reduction in fertility.
At present the UN Population Fund predicts that by 2050 the population
of Georgia will reduce by 1.17 million people, Chiburdanidze reported.
