The current President of Georgia is the pro-Western Mikhail Shikashvili.  Tensions are very high with neighboring Russia over the status of two provinces. Georgia has sought [[NATO]] membership for protection, but has been turned down. The United States is generally favorable toward Georgia, but does not want the conflicts there to escalate or cause a serious reputure between Moscow and Washington.
