PM Meets U.S. Trade Representative
Georgian PM Irakli Garibashvili met U.S. Trade Representative Michael Froman in Washington on February 27.
Georgian PM’s office said in a statement that Garibashvili expressed confidence that “free trade regime between Georgia and the U.S. would be mutually beneficial.”
A readout of the meeting released by the U.S. Trade Representative’s office says, without mentioning free trade, that the U.S.-Georgia high-level dialogue on trade and investment “is intended to explore a range of options for increasing bilateral trade and investment.”
The U.S.-Georgia High-Level Dialogue on Trade and Investment followed up on the January, 2012 meeting between President Obama and then President Saakashvili, when it was announced about exploring possibility of free trade agreement.
