Mikhail Kavelashvili, a former Manchester City footballer, has been elected as the new president of Georgia, with over 200 MPs backing his candidacy. This marks a significant shift as Georgia's presidential elections have traditionally been held by popular vote.

As Kavelashvili steps into office, the country faces growing tension between pro-EU opposition and the ruling Georgian Dream party, further fueling political unrest.
