Georgia stands for development of mutually beneficial cooperation
with all the countries of the region, including Armenia, Georgian
President Mikhail Saakashvili declared in Tbilisi Wednesday. "I want
to stress that we do not want any country to stay apart from this
cooperation. We are interested in the development of friendly and
transparent relations with all our neighbors. It is very important
for us that no country of the region is isolated. We want no state
to stay out of the game," said the Georgian President.

"Certainly, we want close and friendly relations with Armenia. We
wish to develop these relations. The South Caucasian countries have
no other alternative aside from friendship and joint development,"
noted Mikhail Saakashvili and added that "all the participants of
the Tbilisi meeting clearly understand it."

Speaking about the countries of the South Caucasus, the Georgian
President said: "We have had a hard past, since we all are parts of a
great empire. We have a very interesting present. A great and bright
future is awaiting us. I’m absolutely sure of it." "The basis of this
future is laid today with the signing of an agreement on cooperation
between Georgia, Azerbaijan and Turkey," said the Georgian leader.
