Georgian Foreign Minister Ilia Darchiashvili on Saturday hosted Marija Pejčinović Burić, the Council of Europe’s Secretary General, in an informal meeting in Georgia’s capital Tbilisi, discussing the CoE’s support to the country.

Keeping the issue of Georgia at a high political level in the Council was positively assessed at the meeting, with the sides highlighting the organisation’s role in supporting Georgia’s sovereignty and territorial integrity, as well as the peaceful resolution of the conflict and restoration of trust between communities divided by the conflicts.

The important contribution of the CoE to the process of implementing institutional and democratic reforms in Georgia within the action plan of the Council was also emphasised, the Foreign Ministry said.
