After the war, thousands of Russian companies have appeared in Georgia. That worries the experts.

– We have to count on Russia using all the channels and opportunities it has to avoid economic sanctions, says Russia expert Jakub M. Godzimirski.

There are currently 13,500 Russian companies in Georgia. About half of them were registered after the war broke out in Ukraine.

This is shown by a new report from Transparency International. The organization works, among other things, to combat corruption.
