History

In a report on the reorganization of the Ministry for Foreign Affairs in early January 1921, it was proposed that the head of mission in Constantinople also be accredited to Sofia, Belgrade, Athens, Tbilisi, Baku, and eventually Armenia. However, the experts recommended that, for the time being, the minister be accredited only to Sofia. [1]

On 2 April 1992, the Swedish government recognized the Republic of Georgia, as the last of the former Soviet republics. [2] On 25 June 1992, the Swedish government decided to enter into an agreement with Georgia to establish diplomatic relations. The agreement entered into force on 19 September 1992, upon its signing in Moscow by Ambassador Örjan Berner on behalf of Sweden, and Pedo Japaridze on behalf of Georgia . [3] That same year, Sweden's ambassador in Moscow, Örjan Berner, was also accredited as ambassador to Georgia. [4]

The ambassador in Moscow remained accredited to Georgia's capital, Tbilisi, until 2006, when a Stockholm-based ambassador for the Caucasus region (Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia) assumed the accreditation. [5] In 2010, Sweden opened an embassy in Tbilisi. [6] The ambassador there was then also accredited to Yerevan, Armenia until 2020 when the a Swedish ambassador resident in Yerevan was appointed. [7]
