Western countries should not recognize the election of the president by the illegitimate parliament of Georgia, the only legitimate constitutional institution is President Salome Zurabishvili, - the chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee of the Estonian Parliament, Marko Michelson, writes on his X page.

"Western countries should announce in advance that they do not recognize the planned decision of Georgia’s illegitimate parliament to elect a new president on Saturday. Georgia’s only legitimate constitutional institution is President Salome Zurabishvili. To resolve the constitutional crisis and elect a new president, it is first necessary to organize new free and fair general elections," Michelson wrote.
