NATO Foreign Ministers have decided to deepen their partnerships with Georgia and Ukraine including with exercises in the strategic Black Sea region, EDNews reports citing Agenda.ge.
NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg said this includes joint work to counter hybrid warfare, as well as efforts to share more air traffic radar data, “making the skies safer for all”.
It's about exercises, it's about participation in different programs, training and also educational programs provided by NATO... It shows that we step-by-step are doing more together and step-by-step NATO provides more support and help", Stoltenberg said at a pre-ministerial press conference yesterday.
Remaining committed to security and stability in the Black Sea, the United States MIsison to NATO said they support the eventual NATO membership of Georgia and Ukraine.
The NATO foreign ministerial was held virtually today due to the coronavirus pandemic. NATO will also convene a meeting of defence ministers in mid-April.
