Should I use "our" instead of the article before "government" and isn't it better to rephrase my sentence? The second sentence is a rephrased one.

1. "I hope the Georgian government will give permission for airline flights."

2. "I hope our government will allow flights soon."
 
The second only works if the listener knows that you are Georgian. I'd combine the two:

I hope the Georgian government will allow air travel to resume soon.

Yes, the speaker knows that. I may be wrong but I think this part doesn't sound natural: "... government will give permission for airline flights."

It's fine, in the right context.
 
Is my context not the right one?
If there were something to correct, Goes would have corrected it.

Goes is saying that it works in this context but doesn't work in every context.
