Georgia joins Declaration of European Political Community Summit

Georgia joined the Declaration of the European Political Community Summit adopted by the leaders from across Europe on Thursday in the Blenheim Palace in the United Kingdom.

The document includes important directions in relation to European security, as well as energy security and connectivity, the Government Administration said, adding the leaders of about 50 countries of the world supported the document, directed against the Russian "shadow fleet" and the threats arising from it.

The document also reflects the proposal of France and Moldova to create a network of the European political union against “foreign interference and disinformation manipulation”.

According to the Declaration, foreign interference and manipulation of information are strategic challenges to the European Political Community’s member states and require strengthening the resilience of societies and “deeper and faster” coordination between the European states.

The EPC Summit’s Declaration also involves the Georgian Government’s proposal on strengthening the regional ties of the Black and Caspian Seas, within the framework of which the countries located in the regions of the Northern and Baltic Seas of the European political community, along with Ukraine, Azerbaijan, Georgia, Romania, Bulgaria and Turkey, will hold “technical dialogues” to support the regional energy ties.

The Government Administration added the main tool of the dialogues would be sharing the “experience, resources, knowledge and expertise” by the participant countries in a practical way and solving the “challenges” related to regional energy connections and clean energy production.
