The US expects serious steps from the Georgian government

The State Department said in its first official statement on Georgia since President Donald Trump took office that the United States has outlined steps the Georgian government can take to demonstrate its seriousness about improving relations with the United States.

“Regarding the anti-democratic actions taken by the Georgian Dream government, as Vice President Vance noted in Munich, a democratic mandate cannot be achieved by censoring or imprisoning opponents or by ignoring the views of the mainstream electorate about who should be part of our shared society,” the State Department said in a statement to globalnews.ge.
