Georgia will bid for the 2014 Winter Olympic Games, the country's Olympic chief said on Wednesday.

Badri Patarkatsishvili, president of the Georgian Olympic Committee (GOC), said that Georgia planned to file an official bid with the International Olympic Committee (IOC) in the next few days.

"I think Georgia is fully capable of staging the Winter Olympics in 2014," said Patarkatsishvili, adding that Georgian President Mikhail Saakashvili had given his approval.

GOC general secretary Emzar Zenashvili said the Georgians wanted to use the small town of Borjomi in the Caucasus mountains as the main Olympic venue.

Georgia is the seventh country to express an interest in staging the 2014 Winter Games.

South Korea's Pyeongchang, Austria's Salzburg, Bulgaria's capital Sofia, Sweden's Ostersund, German city of Munich and China's Harbin have also put forward bids ahead of the July 28 deadline.

Turin hosts the Winter Olympics next year while the 2010 Games will be staged in Vancouver.
