Taking into consideration the Russian aggression in Ukraine, the minister also met with the Turkish and Bulgarian Ministers of Defense, Hulusi Akar and Dragomir Zakov, respectively, to discuss security in the Black Sea region. Minister Burchuladze addressed changes in the Ministry of Defence with his Turkish counterpart, as well as the execution of the SNGP projects and the two countries' collaboration in the sphere of military education.
