The Governments of Georgia and Romania have agreed to deepen their political, economic, energy, transit, cultural and humanitarian cooperation, as it was pointed out at today's wider-format meeting led by the Prime Ministers of the two countries.
The dynamics in defense, judiciary, and internal affairs cooperation were singled out, with equally special attention paid to energy and transit relations, prospects of developing tourism, and the importance of closer cooperation between business communities to attract more investments.
As it was decided at the wider-format meeting, Georgia will soon host the next meeting of the Economic Cooperation Council and a joint business forum.
The Georgian side introduced the members of the Romanian Government to the ongoing far-reaching reform agenda under the EU Association Agreement, emphasizing political association and economic integration with the EU as Georgia's goal.
The parties also discussed Black Sea security and issues related to security and human rights problems in Georgia's occupied territories.
The Romanian side reaffirmed its firm support for Georgia's sovereignty and territorial integrity and commended Georgia's progress in the process of drawing closer to the EU and NATO.
