Foreign Minister Lars Løkke Rasmussen says:

” Georgia has embarked on an ambitious plan for the green transition. As a world leader in green energy and water management solutions, Denmark is ready to help Georgia on this path. By bringing together Danish and Georgian businesses and international financial institutions, we hope to unlock the full potential of the green transition in Georgia.”
