The president of Georgia has claimed her country was the of a Russian 'special operation' after a pro-Putin party won yesterday's election.
Standing side-by-side with the Georgian opposition, President Salome Zourabichvili said that she did not recognise the result and called for protesters to take to the streets.
The country's Central Election Commission said Georgian Dream, led by pro-Putin oligarch Bidzina Ivanishvili, won 54.8% of Saturday's vote with almost 100% of ballots counted. Following a divisive pre-election campaign, initial figures suggested turnout is the highest since the ruling party was first elected in 2012.
