The agenda for the NATO Summit in Wales, including on enlargement issues, is still under discussion within the Alliance. The UK recognises the significant progress that Georgia has made on its path to membership, including holding three free and fair elections since October 2012, and their contributions to NATO operations, including the International Security Assistance Force. We encourage Georgia to continue to make progress on reform, including strengthening the rule of law and judicial independence.

Decisions on next steps for Georgia will be taken by NATO on the basis of consensus amongst all Alliance members.
