Official Tbilisi is aiming to establish a genuine and meaningful strategic partnership with Washington.
These remarks were made by Georgia’s Foreign Minister, Maka Bochorishvili.
According to the minister, the so-called "MEGOBARI Act" runs counter to Georgia’s interests and cannot serve as a basis for Georgia-U.S. relations.
“Tbilisi seeks a strategic partnership with the U.S. that requires direct and meaningful dialogue. Democratic Congressman Steve Cohen stated at the Helsinki Commission hearing in September that the Senate has not adopted the ‘MEGOBARI Act’ and will not do so. He added that there are some issues, likely related to major business and port matters,” the minister emphasised.
Bochorishvili also noted that Georgia has already outlined its interests and proposals for future cooperation with the U.S. “The process of rebuilding relations with the U.S. is ongoing, but the political space remains open. We are discussing signals coming from Washington and expect a clear framework to be established for relations with Georgia,” she added.
