Georgia: Former Man City footballer named president

A former Premier League footballer has been chosen as the new President of Georgia - though not by its people.
The election of hardliner Mikheil Kavelashvili means the ruling Georgian Dream party has tightened its grip on power.
It’s accused of rigging parliamentary elections in October with the help of its allies in Moscow.
In response, Georgia’s current pro-Western president vowed to stay on beyond the end of her term on Monday. Meanwhile, in the capital Tbilisi, protestors have taken to the streets round the Parliament.

Elected by Parliament not people, qualifies as illegitimate abroad, but how many unelected Prime Ministers have we had in the last 14 years?

[@michaelcarney6280]

It's one of those do's we say not as we do

[@speakup18]

The same happens in Germany 😅😢

[@notorio526]

Those PMs were all elected as MPs, I guess you don't understand our political system 🤷

[@michaelcarney6280]

@notorio526 You really don't understand what he was saying he was talking about British parliament when they conceded government went through so many prime ministers that the public never voted for

[@Elfdustify]

​@@michaelcarney6280 What you don't understand is that they all were elected MPs. This footballer has no political background and hardly any formal education.

[@greathey1234]

You want Georgia to join the EU which you left 😂 Hypocrites, leave Georgia alone

WE DONT ....IM VERY GLAD WE ARE OUT THIS WOKE PRISON EU

Democracy, dont make me laugh. What's democratic about the E.U, didnt see any public vote for Von der Lying, or for any of the E.U commission.

[@Iwanttoescapeee]

You‘re way to privileged and ungrateful. Stop talking. I think the EU is better. I was born in Germany and I grew up there but my family is from Georgia. Currently I’m here in Tbilisi.. and even if I don’t like the EU, because we have many problems in Germany - it’s still way better than the Russian government.

[@deirdreblair1788]

@Iwanttoescapeee you don't know me from Adam, I am neither privileged or ungrateful for your information. And as far as Georgia is concerned its up to them what they vote for. I merely pointed out the E.U. is hardly a shining light of democracy.

[@Iwanttoescapeee]

@@deirdreblair1788 But the Georgians never voted for them. That’s the whole point. The politicians bribed poor people to vote for them. The poor villagers didn’t had food or money so the people in power literally bribed them. It was filmed. It has been proven. Even they said that these guys were bribing them. Come here in Georgia and you‘ll see why so many people are dissatisfied and suffering. This country needs a change.

[@EVOpower]

EU OUT 😊

[@Suspiria27]

Not just out but outed for every crime they’ve committed

[@peteredan7352]

Forgot to add, I guess the foreign agent's law is based on that of the US governments similar law and the fact that Georgia's current President is French born, French educated and just happened to be the French Ambassador to Georgia before being democratically elected as President if Georgia. I guess these points just slipped the mind of the interviewer?

[@propagandaisnottrue2121]

Democratic? Are you joking? This is a coup...

[@phoneblaster]

...I am a proud Canadian, but as a 'thinker' I have some issues withe the west. Why do we always believe that we (west) are some kind of a descended (divine) paragon of virtue. Anyone that does not become a vassal of the west is a 'Dictator'. I ask a question. Is the USA not a Dictator? If you dont do as you are told then sanctions will follow. The USA does all these regime chenges all over the world and we have to accept that as the right thing. Because the Dream party does ot want to be a vassal of the west, then the USA pays people to come on the street to protest against the Dream party. Just a reminder, that the UN 90+ nations voted for a ceasfire in palestine. The USA used it's privilege (veto) to say No! , let the genocide continue. We dot see it as a wrong? We must stand for what is right even if it means standing alone.

Absolutely Right!!!!

Georgia has two domestic territorial disputes which must be resolved first, before any EU/NATO process

[@hrhemirnabeelbinhamidaddin6581]

So it's okay for a clown 🤡 to become President of the United States of Ukraine, but for an ex footballer to become President of Georgia you say it's not okay... that's called western double standards get over yourselves.

It should have been a people's vote. Georgia people's were very vocal the other week about Russia trying to land grab.

I am your sister in God. By God, I did not write these words except out of distress and the harshness of circumstances. I am asking God and then from you. Do not leave me disappointed. My brother. We are women. We cannot go out and work like men. My Lord, I honor you. You are men. We are women. We cannot go out and work like you. My brother, where is humanity?

I am a Yemeni girl from Yemen who is displaced. My family and I. There are 20,000 Yemenis between us, Ayat Al-Shahrb, and now we owe 60,000 for 3 months, and the owner of the house is one of the people who does not have mercy. By God, my brother, everything will come. One day he would insult us and talk about us and move from the house to the street because we could not pay him the rent. The neighbors saw us. We cried and they came back to talk to the neighbors and gave us the end of the week. We made him swear an oath to God. He took us out to the street. Have mercy on us. Our country is because of this war, and we cannot find food for our day, and I, my brothers and I are living on a embassy. Our father has passed away, may God have mercy on him, and we have no one in this world who has been with us in these harsh circumstances. My younger brothers went out to the street and saw the neighbors eating and stopped at their door to give them bread, even if they broke it, and by God who has the kingdom of the heavens and the earth, they closed the door and expelled them. They came back crying, dying of hunger, and no one left Have mercy on them and give it a holiday, I have made a living, and now blame one of us for helping us with a kilo of flour. I swear to God, I am dying of hunger. My brother, I am a stranger to God and then to you, and I want your help for the sake of God. I implore you, for God’s sake, to love goodness and help me, even if it is 60,000 Yemeni riyals, by messaging me on WhatsApp on this number 00967,711013075 and asking. Name my card and send it and don't be late May God compensate you with all the best, my brothers Sagar. Look at how they are, help us and save us before they throw us out in the street. We will be lost or die of hunger. My family and I ask you in God’s name, if you are able to help us, do not be late for us, and may God reward you.

My appeal to every Muslim, my brother or sister, the owner of the channel, I know that it is not my right to comment on your channel, but God is my witness that our circumstances are harsh and forced me to do this.

My brother, God has honored you. You are men. We are women. We cannot go out or work like you. My brother, where is the brotherhood of faith in your hearts? We are women. There is no brotherhood, no mercy, no compassion, no humanity. And give good tidings to the patient. It is the greatest hope while waiting for what we want.
