Over the last two days, Nordic and African Foreign Ministers met in Copenhagen. We had open and friendly exchanges on global governance, rule of law, cross-regional partnerships, green growth, sustainable food chains and on how to go from aid to trade. Really inspiring! 🌍

Deeply concerned by reports of disproportionate use of force against peaceful protesters in Tbilisi. We urge all actors to refrain from violence, and call on Georgia’s government to uphold the right to peaceful protest and assembly.
