Whether the construction of the largest airport in the South Caucasus will be continued, is still unknown. "Rakia Georgia" chief legal advisor states radio "Commersant" that the construction is still suspended.

 

According to Zurab Neparidze, so far "Rakia" has maintained the Poti airport project. However, whether it will be resumed or on whom this fact depends, is unknown.

Poti majoritarian MP Eka Beselia made a statement regarding the construction of Poti airport in radio "Commersant" air ​​before the elections, and later the information was confirmed by "Rakia".

 

President Mikheil Saakashvili voiced the initiative on Poti international airport construction which had to be the largest in Transcaucasia in 2009 and said that the construction had to be finished in 2012. However, environmental protection NGOs protest against the construction of the airport near Kolkheti National Park and think that this construction will cause environmental problems.
