We believe that we are reliable partners for our neighboring countries, including when it comes to economic ties, transit, etc. – Georgia is interesting for all countries in terms of connectivity, also in the sense that we have very good trade relations with various countries, – the Prime Minister of Georgia, Irakli Kobakhidze, said during a panel discussion at the Silk Road Forum.
According to him, the Georgian government is focused on strengthening peace, cooperation, and the development of economic partnership from beginning to end.
“We have done everything in the past years to maintain peace in our country. Also, throughout these years, we have been doing everything to make the maximum contribution to strengthening peace in our region. We believe that we are reliable partners for our neighboring countries, including when it comes to economic ties, transit, etc. Georgia has always played the role of such a reliable partner for our friendly countries.
We are glad that from a political point of view, we are connected by strategic partnerships with both Azerbaijan and Armenia. Of course, we are maximally focused on developing this cooperation. Also, Central Asia is a special priority for us. I think there is even more potential in this regard for developing cooperation.
I would like to emphasize that Georgia is interesting for all countries in terms of connectivity, also in terms of the fact that we have very good trade relations with various countries around the world. We have a free trade agreement with the European Union, as well as with the CIS countries, Turkey, China, the United Arab Emirates, and of course, this also strengthens our potential in terms of connectivity. We are absolutely open to cooperation with everyone. This is our policy. From beginning to end, we are focused on strengthening peace, cooperation, and developing economic partnership, and of course, we will continue to act in this spirit in the future. Of course, we hope for cooperation and partnership with all friendly countries,” Kobakhidze said.
