Countering terrorist support networks helps keep America safe. Uzbek national Davud Ansariy, a naturalized U.S. citizen, was arrested in Tbilisi after a decade on the run and extradited to face U.S. charges of providing material support to ISIS and al-Nusrah Front. We thank our Georgian partners for helping secure his arrest and extradition.

Today at the U.S. Embassy, we observed a moment of silence to honor the memory of those who lost their lives in the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks. Chargé d’Affaires Courtney Austrian reflected on the extraordinary professionalism and selflessness demonstrated by firefighters, rescue workers, police officers, service members, medical personnel, and ordinary citizens. Twenty-five years later, we remember September 11, and the courage and unity shown by the American people that day remain a powerful symbol of the resilience of the American spirit.

The United States remains deeply concerned over Russia’s continuing occupation of Georgian territory and condemns the killings, kidnappings, and other abuses that have occurred under Russia’s ongoing occupation. We express our solidarity with the people of Georgia and reaffirm our commitment to Georgia’s sovereignty, independence, and territorial integrity and underline the need for the peaceful resolution of the conflict.
