We have had a truly productive meeting with Mr. Johannes Hahn today. Reforms announced by us will gain great support among our friends. Also, we discussed the implementation of our commitments assumed under the Deep and Comprehensive Free Trade Agreement (DCFTA) progressing at a very high speed in Georgia. We had series of very important meetings yesterday with Mr. Donald Tusk, President of the European Council, and other partners. Once again, it was mentioned that support in principle is granted to Georgia on its way to EU integration. Supportive messages have been reiterated. At the same time, we gained solid support towards economic reforms that will be implemented in the country.
Special focus has been made on the inclusive economic growth, e.i. a type of economic growth that will lead to a more equitable distribution of economic wealth among the population of the country. There were other very important meetings at the NATO Headquarters, including a meeting with a Secretary General. Once again a totally supportive assurance has been given towards our territorial integrity and full support on our quest to Euro-Atlantic integration and full encouragement for the reforms intended by us for the increased, empowered and strengthened defense capacity of the country advancing to the NATO standards.
