Baku, Azerbaijan – Georgian Prime Minister Irakli Kobakhidze is set to visit Baku to participate in the 10th anniversary session of the Azerbaijan-Georgia Intergovernmental Commission.
The announcement was made during a joint press conference in Baku by Georgian Foreign Minister Maka Botchorishvili and her Azerbaijani counterpart, Jeyhun Bayramov.
Highlighting the enduring partnership between the two nations, Azerbaijani Foreign Minister Bayramov praised the historical ties rooted in mutual respect, sovereignty, and international law. “The relations between Azerbaijan and Georgia have always been defined by friendship and neighborly cooperation. Today, these relations are at their highest level,” he noted.
A Milestone in Bilateral Relations
Georgia’s Foreign Minister Maka Botchorishvili expressed optimism about the upcoming session, emphasizing the robust partnership between the two countries.
“It is very encouraging that there is a strong partnership between our countries. Tomorrow, the 10th joint session of the Intergovernmental Commission will be held. Our agenda is very intensive and interesting,” she said.
Azerbaijani Foreign Minister Jeyhun Bayramov highlighted the economic cooperation between the nations, noting Azerbaijan’s leading role in investment in Georgia.
“Azerbaijani companies are the number one investors in Georgia. The trade turnover between the two countries is approaching 1 billion dollars. This dynamic pleases us, and in the near future, we will be able to talk about even larger figures,” Bayramov stated.
Regional Projects Cementing Cooperation
During the discussions, both ministers underscored the importance of regional projects, which have brought significant economic and strategic benefits. The Baku-Tbilisi-Ceyhan oil pipeline and the Southern Gas Corridor were spotlighted as key collaborations.
Bayramov also highlighted recent developments in the Baku-Tbilisi-Kars railway project:
“The cargo capacity of the Baku-Tbilisi-Kars railway has been increased from 1 million tons to 5 million tons. This is a significant project not only for increasing trade turnover between the two countries but also for enhancing its competitiveness. These projects are historic and have been implemented over many years, benefiting both our countries and the broader region.”
Green Energy and Shared Goals
The ministers also discussed a groundbreaking green energy corridor project, launched in late 2022. Although still in the preliminary stages, this initiative aims to deliver sustainable energy from the Caspian basin to Europe via Georgia.
Both diplomats emphasized that the ultimate goal of Azerbaijan and Georgia is to ensure peace and stability in the South Caucasus.
“Our region is our shared home,” Botchorishvili said, echoing the sentiment of mutual commitment to regional harmony.
The 10th session of the Azerbaijan-Georgia Intergovernmental Commission is expected to further strengthen the ties between the two nations while laying the groundwork for future cooperation in economic, energy, and infrastructural development.
