( Civil Georgia ) -The European Union has granted Georgia the right to align itself with political declarations adopted in the framework of the EU's Common Foreign and Security Policy, the Georgian Foreign Ministry said on June 4.
The move is part of the EU Neighbourhood Policy Action Plan (ENP AP) agreed between the sides in November 2006.
"This brings Georgia even closer to Europe and is of particular importance in terms of the further development of Georgia's political co-operation with the European Union. Georgia is now involved in carrying out the European Union's Common Foreign and Security Policy, and afforded the opportunity to voice its own position alongside the European Union's 27 member states on the ongoing political developments in the world," the Georgian Foreign Ministry said.
