Turkish President to Visit Georgia in 2020

"President of Turkey Recep Tayyip Erdoğan will likely visit Georgia in May," Giorgi Janjghava, Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary Ambassadors of Georgia to the Republic of Turkey, told reporters on Monday.

“Our Prime Minister Giorgi Gakharia paid a visit to Ankara a few weeks ago. This visit was followed by an eco-commission, which was held for the first time after 14 years. This visit was followed by his second visit to open the Turkish section of Tanap (the Trans-Anatolian Natural Gas Pipeline). We have talked with the Turkish side that a strategic commission meeting is likely to be held in Ankara in February, and then President Erdogan is expected to visit Georgia in May. Talks are underway. Turkey is not only our kind neighbor but also a strategic partner that recognizes Georgia's territorial integrity and supports Georgia's NATO membership," he said.
