Georgian Prime Minister Irakli Garibashvili spoke about Georgia’s role in a rapidly shifting regional landscape, describing the country’s ties with Armenia and Azerbaijan as constructive and forward-looking. He framed Tbilisi as a mediator with clear principles, aiming to support durable peace in the South Caucasus while preserving its own independent stance. In his remarks, Garibashvili emphasized that Georgia maintains positive, cooperative relations with both Yerevan and Baku, underscoring a balance that reflects Georgia’s policy of impartial friendship. He articulated a vision of regional stability rooted in open dialogue, verifiable trust, and avoidance of choosing sides that could undermine collective security and economic development in the three nations and their neighbors. The message, relayed by TASS, signals Georgia’s ongoing commitment to a peaceful, multilateral approach to regional challenges, rather than alignment with any single power bloc.
