Defiant and unwavering: Georgia's president Salome Zourabichvili is focus for hope
Briefly

President Salome Zourabichvili has emerged as a symbol of resistance against Georgia's ruling party, Georgian Dream, challenging their authoritarian grip on power amidst a political crisis.
Zourabichvili's presidency, once seen merely as a ceremonial role, has transformed into a strong opposition to Georgian Dream, galvanizing public support from the youth amidst widespread discontent.
The recent election of Mikheil Kavelashvili highlights Georgian Dream's strategy to undermine democratic institutions, as he lacks public support and serves merely as a figurehead for the oligarch behind the party.
In an unnerving political environment, Zourabichvili's assertion, 'What if we ignore them?' underscores her commitment to resisting the authoritarian tendencies of the ruling party and advocating for democracy in Georgia.
