Georgia’s historical role has always been founded on defending its own national interests and cultivating relationships with other states built on mutual respect. The President of Georgia said this with the interview with Imedi LIVE.

“Throughout the most successful periods of Georgian statehood, our strength was largely defined by a clear understanding of our national interests and a pragmatic approach to relations with political and economic partners.

We are not attacking anyone; the main thing for us is the interests of our country, and we stand ready to maintain relations with every state based on mutual trust, mutual respect, and shared benefit.

Today’s foreign policy represents the modern continuation of this state tradition, anchored in national interests, prioritizing the preservation of peace and stability, economic growth, and equal cooperation with international partners.

Georgia’s achievements amidst a challenging geopolitical landscape have earned positive recognition from international partners. The country’s trajectory demonstrates that adapting its historic role to contemporary realities enables Georgia to safeguard its sovereignty while remaining fully open to cooperation with all partners”, - said Mikheil Kavelashvili.
