French Ambassador wishes PM candidate “successful” implementation of EU integration plan

Sheraz Gasri, the French Ambassador to Georgia, on Thursday wished Irakli Kobakhidze, the candidate for the position of the Prime Minister, a successful implementation of the plan for “Georgia's Euro-Atlantic aspirations”.

The French diplomat attended a plenary session of the Parliament, where Kobakhidze presented his Government programme.

The candidate for the position of the head of the Government on Wednesday said the “main priority” would be the country’s full integration into European and Euro-Atlantic structures, as outlined in its constitution.

Kobakhidze also stressed receiving the European Union membership candidate status in December had been “the most important political act” on Georgia’s European integration path.
