The annual conference of the Black Sea Platform is taking place, organized by the EU-Georgia Business Council and supported by USAID’s Economic Governance Program.

The conference addresses the challenges and opportunities related to the efficient functioning of the Middle Corridor transport route. Additionally, discussions are being held on specific projects and reforms that will facilitate trade with the European Union via the Black Sea and strengthen connections.

The event includes representatives from the accredited diplomatic corps, business associations, the private sector, and civil organizations.

According to Zviad Chkhartishvili, Commercial Relations Director at the operator company of the Port of Poti, “APM Terminals Poti,” the business sector is interested in maintaining a stable political and economic environment in the country.

As he told journalists, the imposition of sanctions is not good for anyone.

“The situation may not directly reflect yet, because the process itself is characterized by inertia. With this inertia, we are currently moving forward steadily and experiencing growth. What will happen in the future, I do not know. We are all waiting for further developments. Of course, we all want stability. I don’t think sanctions would be good for any European or Georgian company. I cannot predict how this will affect us in the future,” said Chkhartishvili.
