Georgian Prime Minister Irakli Kobakhidze is in Hungary for high-level meetings focused on expanding bilateral engagement. The visit includes talks with Hungarian leaders and is expected to pave the way for new agreements across several key sectors.
Georgian Prime Minister Irakli Kobakhidze has begun a two-day official visit to Hungary, aiming to strengthen political, economic, and strategic cooperation between the two countries.
High-Level Meetings Begin in Budapest
The visit kicked off with an official welcoming ceremony at the Hungarian Prime Minister’s Palace, followed by a one-on-one meeting between Kobakhidze and his Hungarian counterpart Viktor Orbán. Delegation-level talks were also held, with ministers from both countries engaging in bilateral negotiations.
Expanding Cooperation Across Key Sectors
The highlight of the visit is the second session of the Georgia-Hungary Intergovernmental Commission, taking place in Budapest. According to Georgian officials, the session will focus on signing new agreements in several fields, including agriculture, energy, culture, innovation, and sports.
“These are areas with vast potential for collaboration, and today's discussions are expected to lead to concrete agreements,” Georgian government sources said.
Press Conference and Strategic Messaging
A joint press conference by Prime Ministers Kobakhidze and Orbán is scheduled following the Intergovernmental Commission session, where the leaders will outline the results of their talks and set the tone for future cooperation.
Kobakhidze is also slated to meet with Hungarian President Tamás Sulyok and the Speaker of the Hungarian National Assembly László Kövér, highlighting the comprehensive nature of the diplomatic engagement.
Hungary: A Vocal Ally on Georgia’s European Path
Speaking to Georgian journalists ahead of the visit, Kobakhidze emphasized the importance of the relationship, describing Hungary as a “special supporter” of Georgia’s development and European aspirations.
“It is particularly important for us to further develop relations,” Kobakhidze noted. “The session in Budapest serves to discuss both political and economic cooperation, and we will continue to prioritize our partnership moving forward.”
Looking Ahead
Georgia and Hungary have steadily grown closer in recent years, bound by shared interests and Budapest’s vocal support for Tbilisi’s European integration. With new agreements and strengthened diplomatic ties expected from this visit, both governments signal a clear intention to deepen collaboration in the years ahead.
