Large crowds of protesters gathered outdoors the Georgian parliament to oppose the appointment of a brand new president.
The BBC’s Rayhan Demytrie watched as protesters kicked a ball after Mikheil Kavelashvili, a former Manchester City soccer participant turned ultra-conservative politician, was elected Georgia’s subsequent president.
The protests had been sparked by the ruling Georgian Dream celebration’s choice to droop the nation’s EU accession talks till 2028. Hundreds of individuals have been detained throughout the nation, with journalists amongst these injured by safety forces.
