Georgia’s ruling Georgian Dream party has officially clinched last month’s parliamentary elections with 53.93% of the vote, according to final results released Saturday. The win comes amid heated accusations of fraud, claims of Russian meddling, and calls from Western nations to probe irregularities. 🚨
The opposition, led by a coalition of four alliances, secured 37.79% of ballots but has refused to accept the outcome, calling the vote a \"Russian special operation\"—a claim denied by the Kremlin. Georgian President Salome Zourabichvili also criticized the process, adding fuel to the political fire. 🔥
This election marked Georgia’s first fully proportional parliamentary vote, with nearly 90% of voters using electronic devices at polling stations. While officials praised the tech-forward approach, critics argue the system lacked transparency. 💻
Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov dismissed allegations of interference as \"completely unfounded,\" but tensions linger as Georgia balances its pro-Western aspirations and geopolitical realities. 🌍⚖️
