British Ambassador Meets Leaders International Program Winner

On August 25, British Ambassador to Georgia, Justin McKenzie Smith, met the Chair of Parliament's Foreign Relations Committee, Sophiko Katsarava, MBE.

The Ambassador and Ms. Katsarava updated each other on current affairs in UK-Georgia bilateral relations.

The two also discussed the constitutional amendments and ongoing and planned reforms in Georgia as well as the issues of UK-Georgia parliamentary bilateral relations and further strengthening these “on the basis of links between political, economic, education and peoples”.

Katsarava was nominated for the Leaders International Program by the British government. She will soon be visiting London for a number of high-level parliamentary meetings and events.

“Ambassador Justin McKenzie Smith thanked me for representing the Leaders International Program, which gives me the opportunity to take part with international high-level diplomats and politicians,” Katsarava said. “It is a great opportunity for promoting Georgia and informing [the British] about ongoing reforms in the country”.

“I look forward to it and interesting discussions on a wide range of issues with a very interesting and diverse group of participants,” she added.
