State Border Guard liaison officers promote cross-border cooperation and the expansion of professional contacts between law enforcement agencies of European Union member states and third countries and other partners, thereby reducing illegal cross-border activities and combating illegal immigration to European Union member states.
This training was organized and provided within the framework of the Financial Instrument for Border Management and Visa Policy 2021-2027, project No. VRS/RPVP/2023/9 "Continuation of the activities of the State Border Guard liaison officer points in Georgia, Ukraine, Moldova, and Azerbaijan".
The project contributes to the implementation of the EU Security Strategy and protects fundamental rights and European values.
