In a joint statement issued on Tuesday, NATO foreign ministers reaffirmed their 2008 Bucharest Summit and "all subsequent" decisions on welcoming Georgia's and Ukraine's Euro-Atlantic aspirations.
The statement read that the FMs “firmly” stood behind their commitment to the Alliance’s Open Door policy and welcomed meetings with their counterparts from NATO partner states of Bosnia and Herzegovina, Georgia and Moldova.
It was stressed that the alliance strengthened its “tailored” support to building its partners’ “integrity and resilience”, as well as “developing capabilities and upholding their political independence”.
The Georgian foreign minister Ilia Darchiashvili has been also participating in the ongoing meetings of NATO state and partner FMs in Bucharest.
