摘要
Georgia's economic relations with China have been especially activated in the past couple of years. This includes both direct trade relations between the two countries as well as Chinese directinvestment in the Georgian economy.
The China-initiated Silk Road Economic Belt creates an opportunity for Georgia to transform its role as an energy transportation hub to a regional economic hub in general. Closer economic ties with China as witnessed in recent years are definitely in Georgia's interests to diversify export markets and attract foreign investment.
