Accordingly, the MoD will continue its transformation process to increase its interoperability with NATO. Cooperation with NATO member and partner states plays an important role in supporting Georgia’s national political and military goals. It is important for the GAF to broaden cooperation in security and military issues with NATO member and partner states as well as with the European Union (EU) and other international organizations.
