Georgian Prime Minister Irakli Garibashvili held a telephone conversation with French President Francois Hollande today and discussed the state of the region.
The two officials spoke about the processes taking place in the region, topics expected to be discussed at the September NATO Summit in Wales and other important issues, said Garibashvili’s press service.
The two parties reaffirmed their commitment to one another, which ended with Garibashvili thanking Hollande for supporting Georgia and for his interest in the country’s current developments.
Hollande visited Georgia in May this year.
Defence Minister of Georgia Irakli Alasania is on a working visit to France to discuss how the two countries can work together in a defensive partnership.
With six days to go until Georgia participates in the NATO Summit in Wales, Georgian high officials are looking forward to positive outcomes from the annual meeting.
NATO may hold military exercises in Georgia and establish a military training centre in the country, see more Georgian participation in NATO exercises and possibly expand the local NATO liaison office - a top NATO official said.
