Georgia elects ex-footballer amid election boycott and unrest

^{Published on 2024-12-14 12:00:47 - MSN}

The boycott of the election and the ongoing anti-government demonstrations in the country did not help. Fifty-three-year-old former football player and politician Mikheil Kavelashvili was elected president of Georgia by the electoral college.

The article from MSN discusses the recent parliamentary elections in Georgia, where the country elected a former footballer, Mikheil Saakashvili, amidst significant political unrest and an election boycott by the opposition. The elections were marked by controversy, with opposition parties claiming electoral fraud and refusing to recognize the results. This boycott and the subsequent protests reflect deep divisions within Georgian politics, particularly over issues of electoral integrity and governance. The election of Saakashvili, who has a controversial past as both a celebrated athlete and a polarizing political figure, adds another layer of complexity to Georgia's political landscape, highlighting the ongoing struggle for democratic stability in the region.
