On 7-8 May 2026, Ambassador Kevin Hamilton, the NATO Secretary General's Special Representative for the Caucasus and Central Asia, paid a visit to Georgia. He met with Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs Maka Botchorishvili, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Defence Irakli Chikovani, and Deputy Foreign Minister Lasha Darsalia.
Ambassador Hamilton exchanged views on NATO’s long-standing partnership with Georgia, especially NATO’s support to Georgia’s defence capacity, interoperability, and institutional reforms. This is done through instruments including the Individually Tailored Partnership Programme, the Substantial NATO-Georgia Package (SNGP), and the NATO Military Committee with Georgia Work Plan. He highlighted that Allies continue to encourage Georgia to sustain and deepen reforms, including democratic governance, which will remain essential for the country’s long-term Euro-Atlantic integration process. He also discussed regional security developments of mutual interest.
During his visit, Ambassador Hamilton also met with representatives of Georgia’s civil society, Allied Embassies, and staff at the NATO Liaison Office in Tbilisi. He also toured the NATO-Georgia Joint Training and Evaluation Centre (JTEC) – a flagship NATO-Georgia initiative – and visited the Administrative Boundary Line with Georgia’s occupied South Ossetia/Tskhinvali region, to highlight the Alliance’s unwavering support for Georgia’s sovereignty and territorial integrity, within its internationally recognised borders.
