Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, what recent discussions he has had with his counterparts in (a) the US and (b) other NATO member states on a potential NATO Membership Action Plan for Georgia.

Government ministers and officials have regular discussions with NATO Allies on the process of Georgian integration with NATO, including at last week’s NATO Defence Ministerial and NATO-Georgia Commission meeting. The Substantial NATO-Georgia Package (SNGP) agreed at the NATO Summit in Wales (2014) supports Georgia’s work to strengthen its institutions and interoperability with NATO. At the NATO Summit in Warsaw in July 2016, Allies reaffirmed their commitment that Georgia would become a member of NATO and expanded and deepened areas of cooperation under the SNGP.
