French Navy Ship Makes Port Visit in Batumi
Tbilisi: French navy ship, Commandant Birot (F 796), is visiting Georgia’s Black Sea port of Batumi on September 6-8.
Joint diver training exercises with the Georgian coast guard officers will be held, according to the Georgian officials.
This is the third French navy ship making a port visit in Georgia this year.
Light stealth frigate FS Surcouf visited Batumi in mid-July and intelligence-gathering ship Dupuy de Lôme made a port visit also in Batumi in late April.
