**US Policy to Change Under Trump**
A leader of the Georgian party Lelo, Badri Japaridze, thinks that US policy will become more effective and targeted now that Donald Trump is President.
Japaridze met with American congressmen and senators. They said that Trump would take strong action against countries where leaders do not listen to their people.
Trump’s new team is made up of experienced professionals. Japaridze believes this means US policy will be more focused on helping countries like Georgia.

Japaridze thinks that supporting freedom fighters, including the people of Georgia, is a priority for Trump and his team.

He is confident that after new elections, the partnership between Georgia and the US will continue to grow stronger.
