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.
However, Kavelashvili’s appointment has sparked protests from the opposition, accusing the ruling party of undermining democracy.
As Kavelashvili steps into office, the country faces growing tension between pro-EU opposition and the ruling Georgian Dream party, further fueling political unrest.
Will Kavelashvili’s presidency bring stability or deepen the divide in Georgia?

NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte has urged European leaders to stop complaining about being sidelined in Ukraine peace talks and instead present concrete solutions. Speaking at the Munich Security Conference, Rutte emphasized that Europe must take action rather than protest its exclusion from key negotiations. His remarks come amid growing concerns that the US and Russia may shape Ukraine’s future without significant European input. Meanwhile, NATO plans to finalize a new defense spending agreement at its upcoming June summit, stressing that many members still fail to meet their commitments.

Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov has made provocative statements regarding the ongoing Ukraine conflict, urging for a shift in diplomatic approaches. Lavrov emphasized that peace efforts should not be seen as a "zero-sum game," but rather as a process of listening to both sides and seeking common ground. In a direct response to European Union and NATO leaders, he criticized their vehement opposition to US-Russia talks, calling their reaction “unhealthy” and detrimental to peace efforts. Lavrov also condemned NATO Chief Jens Stoltenberg for instructing Ukrainian President Zelensky not to make any concessions to Russia, accusing him of "abusing his position." Lavrov’s remarks highlight the growing divide between Russia and Western powers, as both sides remain entrenched in their positions.
