Georgia and the United Kingdom have developed a strategic partnership that has evolved throughout the centuries-old friendship and connections, Georgian Prime Minister Irakli Garibashvili stated in his speech at the event celebrating the Platinum Jubilee of Queen Elizabeth II, marking the 70th anniversary of her accession.

The Head of Government wished a happy anniversary to the Queen of the United Kingdom, the British people, and the members of the Commonwealth, and wished them good health, peace, and prosperity.

"The United Kingdom has always been a country that our people have admired for its unique culture and traditions. Your country represents a perfect example of how traditions and culture can empower modern statehood that builds on the principles of freedom, democracy and liberty for every individual.

On this special occasion I am delighted to note that our long-established friendship has continued in times of peace and peril and found its expression in present-day political and economic partnership between Georgia and the UK. The Strategic Partnership and Cooperation Agreement together with the Wardrop Strategic Dialogue are two important political formats that open new possibilities for further expanding our bilateral cooperation in all sectors. The fact that the Wardrop Strategic Dialogue over the last years has transformed into the main platform for cooperation is not only symbolic of how our partnership takes its roots deep within our cultures but it also resonates with our goals for the future that stands on our shared values and ideals. Georgia's strive for Euro-Atlantic aspiration is our peoples' choice and decades-long struggle to ensure peace, security and freedom in our region and beyond," the Prime Minister emphasized.

Irakli Garibashvili thanked Georgia's partners for supporting the country's sovereignty and territorial integrity, and its path toward Euro-Atlantic integration, also expressing hope that this partnership will deepen further alongside democratization and reforms.

"Today, the joint effort of the international community and support of the regional partners are very important in the context of Russia's military aggression against Ukraine. This unity will send out a crucial message to everyone, a message that we are not alone. In this significant moment, while we await the answers from our European partners, our unity is indispensable for ensuring greater security and stability in the region.

"I wish to thank everyone once again and congratulate all of you with Her Majesty's Platinum Jubilee!" Irakli Garibashvili said.

Held at the UK Embassy, the event celebrating the Platinum Jubilee of Queen Elizabeth II was attended by representatives of Georgia's executive and legislative branches and civil sector, also of the diplomatic corps and international organizations.
