The initiative to offer resettlement to boers, descendants of Dutch farmers, residing in South Africa, to Georgia, belongs to Georgian president, Mikheil Saakashvili, the first lady of Georgia, Sandra Elisabeth Roelofs stated.

Earlier, the opposition accused her of lobbying boers’ interests because of their Dutch origin.

Boers were offered to purchase lands in Georgia at low prices and invest in the country’s economy. The first boer farms will be formed in Georgia before the end of spring.

A www.boers.ge website was launched for boers who already resettled to the country. The resource provides an opportunity to address Georgian President with a request to grant Georgian citizenship, Vzglyad newspaper reported.
