United States recognition
United States recognition is the formal acknowledgment by the U.S. government that a new government or state has established legitimate authority and sovereignty. Recognition allows the U.S. to establish diplomatic relations, exchange ambassadors, and engage in official interactions. It’s an official endorsement that a state or government meets certain standards of stability and legitimacy. Recognition does not necessarily mean approval of all policies but signifies acceptance of its existence as a sovereign entity in the international community.
