During the official ceremony and meeting with the President, Donald Trump conveyed his best wishes to the newly appointed ambassador for her future endeavors.

"Today marked a significant day in Georgian-American relations. I had the honor of presenting my Letters of Credence to the President of the United States, Donald Trump. On this occasion, I also conveyed the best wishes and congratulations of the Government of Georgia, the Georgian people, the Prime Minister, and the President of Georgia. I relayed our key messages to the United States, emphasizing that the Georgian government stands ready to open a new chapter in our bilateral relations - one that will be grounded in mutual benefit, enhanced partnership, and stronger people-to-people ties.

I would like to highlight that the meeting was held in a very warm and friendly atmosphere and was also attended by U.S. Secretary of State, Marco Rubio.

I wish to extend my gratitude to the U.S. administration for ensuring that this important ceremony could take place within a very short timeframe. I also underscore the considerable support we received to ensure that all procedures were conducted as swiftly as possible.

It is worth noting that yesterday I also held a highly meaningful and engaging meeting with the Chief of Protocol of the United States, Ambassador Monica Crowley. This meeting was also conducted in a cordial and collegial atmosphere.

During these meetings, we had the opportunity to discuss the strengthening of Georgia-U.S. relations, as well as the action plan that will serve as a guiding framework for future cooperation - aimed at building a robust and enduring partnership," the Ambassador stated following the meeting.
