Salome Zurabisvili, the current president of Georgia, attended an opposition demonstration in Tbilisi, where she criticized the election of former Manchester City footballer Mikheil Kavelasvili as a parody. Kavelasvili, a co-founder of the People's Power political movement, was the only candidate in the vote, which was boycotted by opposition parties. Zurabisvili condemned the election as a mockery of democracy and vowed to remain in office after her term ends, citing the illegitimacy of the parliament. Opposition parties support her and plan to recognize her as the legitimate president after Kavelasvili's inauguration, despite ongoing protests and reports of police brutality.
