On September 1, Georgian people stood together as a live-chain against Russian agression. The manifestation was held in all Georgian cities. About a million people took part in the Live-Chain in Tbilisi including all the central streets. At the same time this kind of chain was made in the different Georgia supporting countries. This day was blessed from Catholicos-Patriarch of all Georgia Ilia II and president Saakashvili declared it as the day of unity.
