"The European Union and Georgia have concluded an agreement aimed at mutually protecting the geographical indications covering a wide range of agricultural products such as cheeses, oils and fats, bread and pastry, fruit, vegetables, cereals, fresh meats and meat products, fresh fish and seafood, wines, spirits and beers. This agreement is a step taken by both partners as foreseen in the Partnership and Cooperation Agreement and is the first of this kind with a partner from the European Neighbourhood. It can also be seen as a positive step towards wider trade relations between the EU and Georgia, since it establishes the capacity of Georgia to negotiate and conclude a substantial agreement with the EU on key trade-related issues, including technical commitments. Furthermore, Georgian agriculture is a typical subsistence sector, on which the livelihood of half of the Georgian population depends. Every step to enhance the export prospects of agricultural products is therefore welcome. This agreement should further reinforce this trend. Since it offers both partners special benefits, I take the view that it is right for Parliament to approve the conclusion of the agreement."@en1
