Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett on Monday met with Georgian Prime Minister Irakli Garibashvili to discuss regional matters.
During their meeting, the leaders discussed geopolitical changes and their implications, regional challenges and joint opportunities for Israel and Georgia, as well as cooperation in trade, investments and agriculture.
Minister of Agriculture and Development for the Negev and Galilee Oded Forer (Yisrael Beytenu) also attended the meeting.
Georgia, which sits at the intersection of Eastern Europe and Western Asia, applied for membership in the European Union (EU) earlier this year.
The country is not generally seen as a candidate to join the EU in the near future, but applied due to concerns following Russia's invasion of Ukraine; Georgia itself was invaded by Russia in 2008.
