Eurasianet organization also covered the news about the investment that Donald Trump, a billionaire, plans to attract to Georgia's seaside resort of Batumi and Tbilisi.

"In his first deal in the former Soviet Union, American property developer Donald Trump is bringing his trademark to Georgia as part of a large-scale luxury housing project. . .

First made public last September, Trump's decision to expand into Georgia -- first, with a skyscraper complex in the Black Sea resort town of Batumi, followed by a second development in Tbilisi -- is being touted by the government as a breakthrough in its longstanding efforts to attract foreign investment.

Addressing Trump as "Dear Donald" and calling the event a moment that defines his country's success, a clearly star-struck President Mikheil Saakashvili glowed with pride during a joint news conference on March 10 in New York City's Trump Tower to announce the deal," Eurasianet reports.
