The social media post came following the EIB representative’s meeting with Georgian Prime Minister Irakli Garibashvili on Saturday, where they discussed current projects of the Bank in Georgia and prospects of deepening the cooperation.
Held on the sidelines of the ongoing Munich Security Conference, the discussion also touched on EIB’s support of the private sector in Georgia, including the programmes for the development of medium and small businesses in the country, with €2.04 billion assigned for this purpose.
