High-ranking representatives of the Armed Forces of NATO countries and their partners will take part in the alliance’s Annual Strategic Military Partners Conference (SMPC) in the Georgian capital Tbilisi today. The conference was organized by Allied Command Transformation and the Georgian Armed Forces, the Georgian Defense Ministry said.
