Georgia's new president sworn in amid political crisis and protests

Georgia's newly elected President, Salome Zourabichvili, was sworn into office amidst a backdrop of political turmoil and public demonstrations. The inauguration took place in Tbilisi, where thousands gathered to protest against the ruling Georgian Dream party, accusing it of corruption and ties to Russian interests.
