The Republic of Georgia Sovereignty Act would formally establish US policy against recognizing South Ossetia or Abkhazia as independent countries. It would legally bar federal agencies from taking actions, like agreements or aid, that treat these regions as separate from Georgia, including any future successor governments there.
This affects US diplomats and agencies such as the State Department, plus the governments of Georgia, Russia, and the separatist regions.
The measure would lock in a US stance that has generally been informal policy already, reinforcing support for Georgia's territorial claims and affecting US-Georgia-Russia relations.
