US Embassy: As Secretary Austin visited with troops, once again demonstrating that the United States and Georgia are Stronger Together

„During my final stop in Georgia today, I had the pleasure of meeting with some of our troops stationed in country. It’s never easy to be stationed away from home, but I wanted to make sure they knew how thankful I am for their service and their sacrifice“, - Secretary of Defense Lloyd J. Austin III said during his visit to Georgia.

„Georgian and American soldiers have trained and fought together, forming the bedrock of our security and defense partnership, and contributing to Georgia’s capacity for resilience as a whole-of-society effort. It was a befitting way to conclude a successful visit, as Secretary Austin visited with troops, once again demonstrating that the United States and Georgia are #StrongerTogether“, - mentioned the statement by the US embassy in Georgia.

Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin will stress that there is an “open door to NATO” for Georgia and Ukraine
