AlJazeeraEnglish | Protesters stage sit-in outside Georgia's Parliament in Tbilisi over disputed election results ...
Protesters in Tbilisi have gathered to oppose the new Parliament's first session, alleging election rigging by the Russia-aligned Georgian Dream party. Opposition parties are boycotting the session, and President Salome Zourabichvili has sought to annul the results through the Constitutional Court. The October election, seen as pivotal for Georgia's EU aspirations, has drawn international criticism over alleged voter fraud. Observers reported ballot stuffing and voter intimidation, while the EU plans to investigate. Protesters demand fair elections, vowing to persist until their voices are heard.
