Georgia’s Prime Minister Giorgi Kvirikashvili will deliver a speech.

According to press release:

“The summit will discuss how to further strengthen cooperation in the four priority areas agreed in Riga:

stronger economy: economic development and better market opportunities
stronger governance: strengthening of institutions and good governance
stronger connectivity: enhancing interconnections, notably in the areas of transport and energy
stronger society: increasing mobility and contacts between people

20 deliverables for 2020 in these four areas were identified by the EEAS and the European Commission in a joint staff working document ‘Eastern Partnership – Focusing on key priorities and deliverables’. The report was first presented in December 2016 and revised in June 2017”.
