The meeting focused on the role of Georgia as a “reliable and strategic” partner of the European Union in promoting peace and stability, ensuring mutually beneficial cooperation, development of connectivity and democracy in the Black Sea region.
The meeting also reviewed the process of Georgia’s aspirations to join the bloc, with the EU officials noting its door was “open” for the country.
