  • Georgian lawmakers have voted in far-right former soccer star Mikheil Kavelashvili as next president of Georgia, amid mounting popular anger over the government's halt to EU accession talks.

The article from CNN, published on December 14, 2024, discusses the recent presidential election in Georgia where Mikheil Kavelashvili has emerged as the leading candidate. Kavelashvili, a former diplomat and a key figure in Georgian politics, has promised to strengthen ties with the European Union and NATO, while also focusing on internal reforms to combat corruption and improve economic conditions. His campaign has emphasized national unity and the importance of Georgia's sovereignty amidst regional tensions. Preliminary results show him with a significant lead, although final counts are still pending. The election has been closely watched internationally due to Georgia's strategic location and its ongoing efforts to balance relations between Russia and the West.
