The meeting focused on the European Council’s December 15th sitting, which will discuss granting Georgia candidate status.

The sides reviewed Georgia’s fulfilment of the EC’s newly defined nine steps, regional security issues, Russia’s continuing occupation of Georgia’s territories, Georgia’s peace role in the Azerbaijan-Armenia conflict, and Georgia-Germany bilateral relations.

“Our German friends reconfirmed full support to Georgia’s candidate status and expressed readiness to provide practical support in the nine steps’ implementation,” Nikoloz Samkharadze said.
