Tbilisi has signed a contract with an influential US lobbying firm, the Podesta Group.

Six-month contract worth US$300,000 between Georgia and the lobbying company was signed in January. According to the documents submitted by the company to the US Justice Department, the Podesta Group (PG) will “provide lobbying, government relations, public relations and media management services to Georgia and will also arrange for its client meetings with members of Congress and their staff, as well as with executive branch officials.”
