CGTN2 hours ago3:56

Georgia's showcase at the ninth China International Import Expo (CIIE) is drawing attention to more than its 8,000-year winemaking heritage. In an interview with CGTN's Zhang Meng, Nika Mamukelashvili, head of the Export Department at the Investment Agency of Georgia, said the country's high-level delegation, led by the vice prime minister, came away from their meetings highly satisfied. Discussions with major Chinese e-commerce platforms were described as interesting and productive, as Georgia pushes to expand its B2B and B2C presence in China. Beyond platforms, Georgia plans to launch new programs to support Georgian companies in the Chinese market and create dedicated brands that Chinese consumers can easily remember. He also noted that while Georgia and China have a free trade agreement, there is still room to grow. "China is one of our strategic markets," he said. "China is one of our strongest partners in the world." #CIIE2026 📺 Subscribe to our YouTube channel and stay updated with our latest analysis and interviews:👇 https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgrNz-aDmcr2uuto8_DL2jg 👈 Download our APP on Apple Store (iOS): https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/cctvnews-app/id922456579?l=zh&ls=1&mt=8 Download our APP on Google Play (Android): https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.imib.cctv For more: https://news.cgtn.com/news/2026-11-10/Georgia-seeks-e-commerce-expansion-in-China-to-deepen-trade-ties-1RXupvo3x84/p.html Most watched videos: Impossible Challenge: 30 seconds to count banknotes BLINDFOLDED https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZmP_Ybj-jws Impossible Challenge: Gymnastics Boy Arat Hosseini from Iran! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8sxX--U4c8w Impossible Challenge: How to calm babies in 5 seconds? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kR3q9sXM7WA
