Georgia will be one of the first countries in the region to start negotiations on a free trade agreement with the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Georgian Economy Minister Natia Turnava has announced after the meeting in the Ministry of Economy of the UAE.
“It is important that the talks will start without a feasibility study, because given the trade and economic trends between the countries, it is clear that free trade will be beneficial for both of them”, Turnava said.
Georgia has a free trade regime with the European Union (EU), the European Free Trade Association (EFTA), Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) countries, Turkey, China and Hong Kong. (Agenda/Business World Magazine)
