The drills in Georgia are being conducted in collaboration with the country’s Western Defense Command and the National Guard of the US state of Georgia. The program includes command and staff training, a Georgian-American tactical convoy along the Senaki-Vaziani route, combined live-fire exercises, special operations forces drills, and an inspection of the Georgian Defense Forces Combat Training Center.

The official opening ceremony of the exercises took place at the NATO-Georgia Joint Training and Evaluation Center in Krtsanisi. Attendees included representatives from the Georgian Defense Forces, military attaches, staff from the NATO office in Tbilisi, the US Embassy, the EU Monitoring Mission in Georgia, and the NATO-Georgia Substantial Package group.

Although Georgia is not a NATO member, it actively collaborates with the Alliance in various areas, including defense, security, and military training. The country has participated in NATO-led missions, contributed to peacekeeping operations, and supported regional stability efforts. Through initiatives like the NATO-Georgia Annual National Programme and the Substantial NATO-Georgia Package, Georgia continues to strengthen its ties with NATO, with a particular focus on improving its defense capabilities and integrating NATO standards into its military forces.

Previously, it was reported that Poland will conduct joint military exercises with NATO allies in response to the upcoming Zapad  drills planned by Russia and Belarus for September, Deputy Defense Minister Cezary Tomczyk announced, according to TVN24 on May 26.
