The World Economic Forum's Summer Davos is being held in Dalian, a coastal city of Liaoning Province. Chinese Premier Li Keqiang gave a keynote speech at the opening ceremony Tuesday morning. Premier Li declared Beijing's firm support for multilateralism and said China will open up to more foreign investment. He had a meeting with the prime minister of Georgia and talked about treating the country with mutual respect.

On the sidelines of the forum, CGTN's senior correspondent Tian Wei caught up with Prime Minister of Georgia Mamuka Bakhtadze, who shared what "win-win" means to him.

"When we are talking about international politics, we have the common understanding about the very important issues like the one-China policy and territorial integrity of my country, Georgia," Bakhtadze said.

Two years ago, China and Georgia signed a free trade agreement, from which can be seen that the trade is growing, and the number of Chinese companies doing business in Georgia is growing. For example, Georgia is becoming a major tourist destination. "This year will host more than 9 million visitors, so we would like to see more tourists coming from China to Georgia," Bakhtadze said.

In addition, Bakhtadze has been working very hard around the world to establish free trade agreements with various economies, including the United States. When asked about Georgia's multilateral approach and how he balances it in a way that would help his country in a sustainable development pattern, he sent us a clear message.

"The major goal we are having now is to integrate Georgia in the global economy the most efficient way possible," Bakhtadze said.

Georgia is an open economy and is located at the crossroads of civilizations. It is a natural candidate to become the regional hub for international business.

"It's an individual sovereign decision of any nation how it will be integrated into the global economy. Our decision is to have a very open and liberal economy, to have a free trade agreement with all major economies, to give a platform to international businesses for big cooperation around the world, to do business in our part of the world. That's how we see the role of Georgia," he said.
