UAE President Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan Begins Official Visit to Tbilisi, Georgia

Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, the President of the United Arab Emirates (UAE), has commenced an official visit to Tbilisi, Georgia. The trip aims to strengthen bilateral ties between the two nations.

Upon arrival, Sheikh Mohamed was warmly welcomed by Georgian Prime Minister Irakli Kobakhidze. The visit builds on the growing momentum in relations between the UAE and Georgia.

Accompanying the UAE President is a high-level delegation, including Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, as well as a number of ministers and senior officials from the UAE. Sheikh Mohamed bin Hamad bin Tahnoon Al Nahyan, Advisor to the UAE President, is also part of the delegation.

During the visit, the UAE President discussed paths of cooperation for sustainable development with Prime Minister Kobakhidze. The discussions focused on expanding cooperation in trade, investment, agriculture, renewable energy, and sustainability.

A significant development during the visit was the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) on investment in development projects in Georgia. The MoU was signed by Mohamed Alabbar, Chairman of Eagle Hills, and Georgian officials Levan Davitashvili and Tornike Rijvadze.

Last year, the UAE, led by President Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, supported an investment agreement involving several countries in development projects. However, the specific countries involved are not detailed in the available sources.

The official ceremony kicked off with the playing of the national anthems of UAE and Georgia. The visit marks a significant step forward in the relationship between the two nations, with both parties expressing their commitment to building bridges of cooperation that achieve common interests for all.

Earlier this year, Sheikh Mohamed welcomed Prime Minister Kobakhidze in Abu Dhabi. No further details were given about the schedule or duration of the visit in Tbilisi. The UAE President is keen to strengthen its developmental partnerships with countries in the Caucasus region. The visit to Georgia underscores the UAE's commitment to fostering strong relationships with nations around the world.
