Anti-government demonstrators gather outside the Georgian parliament after the parliament members elected a new president, in Tbilisi on December 14, 2024. An electoral college, controlled by the ruling Georgian Dream party and which is boycotted by the opposition, elected Mikheil Kavelashvili with 224 votes as the country's next President for a five-year term. The opposition has denounced Saturday's election as "illegitimate" and said the sitting president, Salome Zurabishvili remains the country's sole legitimate leader. (Photo by Giorgi ARJEVANIDZE / AFP)
