Kvrivishvili said the working group was established under a memorandum signed between Georgia's Ministry of Economy and Sustainable Development and China's National Development and Reform Commission (NDRC), the country's top state planning agency. She added that the strategic partnership between Georgia and China is already translating into concrete initiatives.

"Our partnership with China is a clear demonstration of how close cooperation can turn shared goals into reality. This collaboration reminds us once again of a fundamental reality: no country can realize the full potential of artificial intelligence on its own. Dialogue, trust, and international partnership are the foundations of responsible governance of artificial intelligence. The choices we make today will determine whether artificial intelligence becomes a dividing line for the world or a force that unites us even more.

"Georgia is ready to actively cooperate with partner states, industry representatives, academia, and international partners to jointly create a reliable, human-centered, and inclusive future of artificial intelligence," Kvrivishvili said.
