I’m fairly sure they are speaking of recognising territory belonging to a certain country. For example, US doesn’t recognise Palestine while plenty of the world does. Trump as a president can definitely shape US foreign policy like that.
[edit] I just realised the next step is Google Maps displaying that Crimea belongs to Russia for everyone regardless of location because that’s how US rolls these days lol.
