China to Aid Pro-Russian Government of Georgia

Georgia is considering joining China's CIPS payment system amid threats of being disconnected from SWIFT.

The National Bank of Georgia announced it is in talks with the leadership of the Chinese system following a meeting between NBG Governor Natia Turnava and CIPS President Fu Huang.

CIPS - the Cross-Border Interbank Payment System - is a Chinese alternative to SWIFT, launched in 2015 for yuan-based transactions.

Earlier, the European Parliament called for Georgia's removal from SWIFT over its cooperation with Russia and democratic backsliding. Voices within the EU are also growing louder in favor of revoking Georgia's visa-free access.
