Details: Zelenskyy said he had a meeting with Kobakhidze on the sidelines of the European Political Community summit in Yerevan, the capital of Armenia.

Quote: "There are indeed unresolved issues between our states. It is important to have dialogue at all levels. Ukraine has always respected and continues to respect Georgia, its sovereignty and its people. We will continue our cooperation going forward."

More details: Zelenskyy did not specify what he discussed with Kobakhidze and did not provide any further details.

Relations between Kyiv and Tbilisi have been extremely challenging in recent years, partly because of the position taken by the ruling Georgian Dream party on the Russo-Ukrainian war and its repeated accusations about alleged plans to "turn Georgia into a second front".

Georgia had no Ukrainian ambassador for almost four years, until Mykhailo Brodovych was appointed to the post in January 2026.
