NATO Assists Georgia to Destroy Munitions

Minister of Defense of Luxembourg Charles Goerens signed on October 28 the financial management agreement for the Trust Fund Project with Georgia at NATO’s headquarters.


The PfP Trust Fund Policy is a tool to support NATO and Partner practical activities to destroy munitions, weapons and managing the consequences of defence reform.


The project covers proper disposal of over 300 ground-air defence missiles located at former military bases in Ponichala and Chaladidi as well as the clean up of unexploded ordnance at Vaziani, former Russia military base near the Georgian capital, Tbilisi.


As the press release issued by NATO on October 28 reads, the realization of this program will increase security in the region, prevent environmental contamination and allow future civilian use of the cleaned up area.


The project costs are estimated at Euro 800,000.
