Georgian President Salome Zourabichvilit says she will remain in office until new elections are held to replace the country’s “illegitimate” anti-West parliament, which withdrew

Georgian President Salome Zourabichvili called the government illegitimate on Saturday and said she would not leave office when her term ends next month, as the prime minister said the state would not allow a revolution to take place.

Georgia's pro-Western president has said she will stay in post until new parliamentary elections are held, as protests continue over the government's decision to put EU accession negotiations on hold.
