As reported by the press service of the Prime Minister, the investments made by the company in Georgia were discussed at the meeting held at the government administration. It was noted that BP has been cooperating closely with Georgia for 25 years and is one of the largest investors, which has significant benefits in terms of transportation of energy resources and fuel supply to the country.
