Georgia's President Boycotts Airline Over Russia Flights
TL;DR
The founder of Georgian Airways, Tamaz Gaiashvili, has banned Georgia's President Salome Zourabichvili from using the airline after she called for a boycott of the airline over its resumption of flights to Russia. Gaiashvili stated that Zourabichvili would be banned until she apologises before the Georgian people. Russia lifted a four-year-old ban on direct flights with Georgia and removed a decades-old visa requirement for Georgians travelling to Russia earlier this month.
