Georgia’s capital Tbilisi will host three European Union (EU) foreign ministers tomorrow.
Martin Lidegaard of Denmark, Grzegorz Schetyna of Poland and Margot Wallstrom of Sweden will arrive in Georgia to express their support towards the country as it moved towards European and Euro-Atlantic integration, noted Georgia’s Foreign Ministry’s spokesperson David Kereselidze.
Tomorrow’s arrival will be the Danish Foreign Minister’s third visit to Georgia in the last 12 months.
"The EU member states’ Foreign Minister’s joint visit is another clear sign of their solidarity towards Georgia,” Kereselidze said.
"Especially, just before the upcoming Riga Summit planned in May,” he added.
While in Tbilisi the high-ranking foreign guests will meet their Georgian counterpart Tamar Beruchashvili, President Giorgi Margvelashvili, Prime Minister Irakli Garibashvili and Parliament Speaker David Usupashvili.
Within the visit Beruchashvili and Schetyna of Poland will sign an agreement to establish Tbilisi Conference; a new format of collaboration that aimed to increase Poland’s role in fulfilling Georgia’s EU and Euro-Atlantic aspirations.
Politics, economic trade and regional security were on the agenda of a dual country meeting between Georgia and Denmark.
Denmark is set to ratify the Georgia-European Union (EU) Association Agreement (AA) in December, says the country’s Foreign Minister Martin Lidegaard.
Denmark is stepping up its level of support for Georgia and increasing its financial aid from 5 to 25 million Danish Krone (from $900,000 to about $4.5 million USD).
Poland is the latest country to ratify the Association Agreement (AA) between Georgia and the European Union (EU).
The official ratification process took place today in the Polish Sejm - the lower house of the country's Parliament.
The Government of Sweden has allocated a €1.5 million (3.3 million GEL) grant for Georgia’s Public Service Development Agency.
The European Union (EU) will never give the green light to legalise Russian occupation, say three EU foreign ministers who are on an official visit to Tbilisi.
Georgia is preparing to host the Foreign Minister of Sweden, Margot Wallstrom. Wallstrom will pay an official visit to capital Tbilisi on February 8.
"Sweden is a strong supporter of Georgia's continued European integration within the Eastern Partnership and [its] ambitious Association Agreement.”
Georgia and Ukraine have been selected as "priority countries” to receive Danish support for the next four years. The Danish Foreign Ministry presented the Danish Neigbourhood Programme 2017-21 in Copenhagen yesterday.
