It is noted that Pompeo voiced this proposal during a telephone conversation with Zourabichvili.

“During the conversation, the Secretary of State congratulated Salome Zurabishvili on his victory in the presidential election ... and expressed the hope that the newly elected president will visit the United States in the near future,” the statement said.
