Why the Georgia Dream, which claims ideological alignment with Trump’s MAGA line was not present on the forum?  Iran war outcome: a two‑week ceasefire with unclear terms and both sides claiming victory — what does this mean for the U.S. exit, domestic framing, transatlantic unity, Ukraine, and Trump’s legacy? U.S. activity in the Caucasus is increasing - engagement with Armenia and Azerbaijan, VP Vance’s visit, TRIPP and Middle Corridor plans - while Georgia appears sidelined. Is this due to limited U.S. interest, the Georgian Dream government, or other factors? Rubio–Kobakhidze contact has happened - Georgian Dream calls it a reset, while the U.S. frames it as narrow security engagement, likely linked to Iran, followed by Iran’s warning and a U.S. military cargo landing in Georgia. What is the real state of U.S.–Georgia relations? Can the government repair ties and seize new opportunities? What should the Georgian opposition do, and what else lies ahead?

Does it still need international legitimacy, and is there any real chance it might call early elections? Especially given the shifting geopolitical context - increased and prolonged U.S. engagement in Iran and the region, and the possibility of European, particularly British, sanctions?
