This bill, known as the "Countering China's Control of the Caucasus Act," mandates two significant reports concerning Georgia. The first requires the Secretary of State, in coordination with the Director of National Intelligence and Secretary of Defense, to submit a classified report within 180 days. This report must examine the penetration of Russian and Chinese intelligence elements and assets in Georgia, as well as the potential intersection of their influence and cooperation. The second report, also due within 180 days, requires the Secretary of State to submit a detailed 5-year United States strategy for bilateral relations with Georgia . This strategy must outline specific objectives for enhancing ties, determine necessary resources and funding, and assess whether Georgia should remain a top recipient of U.S. funding and continued U.S. investment in its partnership.
