“We are doing everything to ensure Georgia strengthens its status as a regional transit hub,” stated Georgian Prime Minister Irakli Kobakhidze at the Antalya Diplomacy Forum.
“We are witnessing wars and tensions around us. Conflicts directly affect all vital sectors: energy, transport, supply chains, and overall economic stability. In the current situation, it is crucial to seek solutions.
Our goal is integration into the European Union; however, it is evident that the EU itself is facing serious challenges. The values upon which this union is founded—strong identity, respect for human rights, and democracy—are today confronted with a new reality, which is also an important issue for us. Against the backdrop of current events, the South Caucasus is gaining special strategic importance, and we are actively utilizing these opportunities.
Georgia, as a natural bridge between Europe and Asia, is doing everything possible to fulfill its role as a connecting link. We offer our partners reliable services…
Our efforts are unequivocally aimed at peace. From an economic perspective, our policy is effective: over the last five years, Georgia has led Europe in terms of economic growth. This year alone, the growth rate reached 8.3%. Our priority is to maintain this momentum. Furthermore, our goal is to ensure peace not only within the country but also to promote it at a regional level. In this regard, we are actively and closely cooperating with our strategic partner, Turkey,” Rustavi 2 television quoted Irakli Kobakhidze as saying.
