Georgian Nightmare Non-Recognition Act

HR 243 prohibits the U.S. government from recognizing or implying recognition of Georgia's government led by Bidzina Ivanishvili, directing federal officials to avoid any actions supporting such recognition. It requires the U.S. to recognize Georgia's current president before the October 2024 elections as the legitimate leader and mandates implementing existing sanctions under Executive Order 14024 against Ivanishvili's regime. The policy would end if Georgia restores its constitution through free and fair elections certified by the U.S. Helsinki Commission. This bill directly affects U.S. diplomatic recognition policy toward Georgia's government.
