Strengthening Georgia’s connectivity is a key task for us, especially under the new geopolitical circumstances, said the Prime Minister of Georgia, Irakli Kobakhidze, in an interview with Euronews.

“Euronews: Let’s talk trade and energy security, which is very important for this area. Where does Georgia play into that? The strategic location is crucial for Georgia, isn"t it?

Kobakhidze: Strengthening Georgia’s connectivity is a key task for us, especially under the new geopolitical circumstances.

For example, we have a very important strategic project which connects us with Azerbaijan and Turkiye.

The Black Sea underwater electricity cable and the Internet cable projects will connect Georgia with the European market.

And we are also investing a lot into the development of infrastructure. We have managed to build around 300 kilometres of highways in Georgia and now we have ordered the construction of a new port on the Black Sea.

We are also constructing a new Tbilisi international airport and we are expanding the capacities of the Kutaisi International Airport”.
