Political Turmoil in Georgia Following Controversial Elections
In the wake of the recent legislative elections marked by widespread allegations of fraud, four opposition coalitions in Georgia are struggling to challenge the ruling Georgian Dream party, led by oligarch Bidzina Ivanichvili. Protests have erupted outside Parliament, while opposition leaders face violence and intimidation. Key figures, such as Nino Dolidze and Giorgi Vashadze, emphasize the dire situation for political dissent and call for unity among oppositions against what they describe as a dictatorial regime. The future of protests and potential international sanctions remains uncertain as tensions escalate.
