Georgian Prime Minister Irakli Garibashvili met with Gordan Grlić-Radman, Minister of Foreign and European Affairs of Croatia.

The parties reviewed the key directions of cooperation between the two countries and discussed prospects of deeper cooperation across a variety of spheres.

The conversation revolved around Georgia’s considerable progress on the path to European integration. Emphasis was placed on the importance of the report of the European Commission on the compatibility of Georgia’s national legislative framework with EU legislation.
