The speaker of the Turkish parliament is on a three-day visit to Georgia.

Cicek is scheduled to meet with his Georgian counterpart, Davit Usupashvili, and Prime Minister Irakli Garibashvili on November 3.

On November 4, he will head to the capital of Georgia's Ajara Autonomous Republic, Batumi.

While in Batumi, Cicek will hold talks with the ead of the province's government, Archil Khabadze.
