According to the embassy, the United States recognized Georgia’s independence in December 1991, marking an important step toward deepening bilateral relations.

“Thirty-four years ago today, March 24, 1992, the United States and Georgia established diplomatic relations, laying the foundation for decades of cooperation and partnership between our countries.

The United States recognized Georgia’s independence in December 1991, and this step paved the way for further strengthening our relationship.
