On Monday, EU foreign ministers will discuss the implementation of the Black Sea Strategy, including strengthening the security of critical infrastructure, High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy and Vice-President of the European Commission, Kaja Kallas, said ahead of the meeting of the EU Foreign Affairs Council, EDnews reports.
According to her, a maritime hub has already been established as part of the Black Sea Strategy, and Bulgaria and Romania are working together to protect critical infrastructure and counter hybrid threats in the region.
"We will also agree on a new partnership mission for Armenia, which will focus on countering hybrid threats and foreign information manipulation and interference (FIMI) that the country faces," Kallas said.
Responding to a question about Georgia's role in implementing the Black Sea Strategy, the head of European diplomacy stated that the EU is experiencing difficulties in interacting with the current Georgian leadership.
"We have virtually no contact with the Georgian government, and we don't want to support the government. We want to support the people of Georgia, and we're discussing how to do this in a way that doesn't leave people hopeful about Europe," she noted.
