Protests In Tbilisi As Ex-footballer To Be Named President

Police officers block the Georgian Parliament building as anti-government demonstrators gather outside the parliament in Tbilisi, Georgia, on December 14, 2024. An electoral college, controlled by the ruling Georgian Dream party and boycotted by the opposition, elects Mikheil Kavelashvili with 224 votes as the country's next President for a five-year term. The opposition denounces the election as ''illegitimate'' and states that the sitting president, Salome Zurabishvili, remains the country's sole legitimate leader. (Photo by Jerome Gilles/NurPhoto)
