On October 6th-7th 2009 European Commission held the first round of negotiations on Comprehensive Aviation Agreement with Georgia in Tbilisi.
The European Commission received a mandate to negotiate the agreement with Georgia in June. The agreement implies mutually opening the respective markets where air carriers can freely provide their services and be able to compete on a fair and equal basis.
The Georgian side is committed to harmonise the legislation with those of the European Union and implement the EU aviation standards. EU currently conducts similar negotiations with 37 countries including Ukraine, Jordan and Israel. The Comprehensive Aviation Agreement is a step towards developing a wider European Common Aviation Area by 2010 incorporating EU neighbouring countries.
