Black Sea and maritime security of Georgia

2026-06-06

Georgia occupies an important geostrategic position with the status of the Black Sea coastal country. Our sea space is one of the main bases not only for economic development, but also for national security. Therefore, the strengthening of maritime security is of special importance for the state.

In today's world, maritime threats are diverse. These include illegal movement, smuggling, cyber-attacks on maritime infrastructure and military challenges in the region. In order to effectively eliminate these threats, it is necessary to introduce modern technologies.

The use of unmanned air and sea systems, modern radars, coastal monitoring networks and artificial intelligence is especially important for Georgia. Such technologies will significantly increase the ability to control the sea space and detect any danger in time.

The Georgian coast of the Black Sea has great economic and strategic potential. The ports of Batumi and Poti are the trade gateways of the country and connect Europe and Asia. In addition, the coastal zone plays an important role in the development of tourism, logistics and energy projects.

Therefore, strong maritime security and the development of modern technologies are not only a matter of defense for Georgia. This is an important prerequisite for economic growth, stability and future development of the country.
