During Wednesday's meeting of the Interagency Coordination Council, Georgian Prime Minister Giorgi Gakharia commented on the upcoming visit of US Secretary of State Michael Pompeo to Georgia, scheduled for November 17-18.

He emphasized that it is yet another demonstration of the importance and all-time high level of the Georgia-US strategic partnership.

“Our meeting will firstly discuss issues pertaining to the US-Georgia Charter on Strategic Partnership, and we will, of course, speak about the current developments in the South Caucasus, Georgia’s further democratization, and economic and security issues. These topics have been suggested by our partners, and we are preparing to discuss them. We all must understand that it is not just a visit by the Secretary of State of our partner country; it is also a visit by Georgia’s friend, and we will do everything to make sure that this visit further deepens the remarkable strategic partnership between the US and Georgia, especially in the direction of the critically important ongoing developments in the South Caucasus, which will have a serious impact on our country’s everyday life, security, and future.

"Consequently, despite the COVID-19 pandemic, and despite the challenges we are facing today, we must be fully focused on getting ready for this visit,” the Prime Minister said.
