Georgia’s NATO MAP Chances ‘Complicated’ – Ruling Party MP

The prospects of Georgia gaining NATO Membership Action Plan (MAP) at the alliance’s summit in Bucharest in April “got complicated,” Givi Targamadze, a lawmaker from the ruling party and chairman of the parliamentary committee for defense and security, said in an interview with Mze TV on November 27. The situation was not, however, he said, “tragic.”


On November 23  in an address to his party congress, Mikheil Saakashvili, the then president, said that “if everything goes according to plan” Georgia would become an official NATO candidate in 2008.


Meanwhile, Salome Zourabichvili, the leader of opposition Georgia’s Way party, told Rustavi 2 TV on November 27 after her return from Europe, that Georgia’s chances of gaining MAP at the NATO summit in April “were almost equal to zero.”
