Stability must be protected, strength of the international order ultimately depends on the same principles being upheld for every nation – Prime Minister

The trials of history have also taught us that sovereignty can never be taken for granted, that stability must be protected, and that the strength of the international order ultimately depends on the same principles being upheld for every nation. The Prime Minister of Georgia said this during his speech at the general debate of the UN General Assembly.

"Lasting peace cannot be imposed by force; it must be built through communication and mutual respect. Few countries understand the value of peace, stability, and sovereignty as deeply as Georgia does. For centuries, we stood at the crossroads of civilizations - open to diverse cultures, peoples, and ideas, while steadfastly preserving our own distinct identity and character.

Georgia’s statehood has been tested more than once, but these challenges have only strengthened our determination to choose our own path. The trials of history have also taught us that sovereignty can never be taken for granted, that stability must be protected, and that the strength of the international order ultimately depends on the same principles being upheld for every nation.

Our commitment to these principles carries particular meaning for Georgia", - said Irakli Kobakhidze.
