Georgian President Salome Zurabishvili had a telephone conversation with NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg about the “unprecedented challenge” that COVID-19 represents for NATO allies and partners.
Welcoming Georgia’s efforts to combat the pandemic, Stoltenberg said that “following Georgia’s request,” NATO allies supported the country, including medical equipment from Poland and the United Kingdom, as well as financial support and medicines from the United States.
According to Stoltenberg, “Georgia’s needs are well known to NATO, and further coordination is ongoing to provide additional assistance in the context of the pandemic.”
“He called NATO and Georgia long-standing partners and once again reaffirmed the Alliance’s support for Georgia’s territorial integrity and sovereignty within its internationally recognized borders,” Georgian media civil.ge quoted NATO Secretary General as saying.
News Front recalls, returning to the facts, not the false hopes of Georgian colleagues. The heads of state and government of NATO member countries said in Bucharest that Georgia and Ukraine will become NATO members when they meet the requirements for membership in this organization.
And also we recall that in connection with the Coronavirus pandemic, it is Russia and China that provide the most ambitious humanitarian support to the West, NATO countries and the USA.
