Jens Stoltenberg, NATO Secretary-General will arrive in Georgia in March. NATO Chief announced about his forthcoming visit during a press conference held after the meeting with Georgia’s President Salome Zurabishvili, being with the first official visit to Brussels, Belgium.
“I am looking forward to this moment. I know that Georgia is a beautiful and hospitable country. I will once talk about partnership with the Georgian government and political leaders. I will also attend NATO-Georgia training. Our message is that partnership becomes stronger. This benefits both NATO and Georgia,” Stoltenberg said.
NATO Secretary-General underlined that Georgia, as all sovereign and democratic state, had the right to become integrated into NATO. He repeated that it was upon the alliance members to decide when Georgia would join NATO and that nobody had the right to interfere into the process.
“We will never tolerate if big nations, for example, Russia will attempt to bring about the sphere of its interests,” NATO Chief said.
Georgia’s President arrived in Brussels on January 21. She will return to Georgia on January 23.
