Georgian President Salome Zourabichvili said on Sunday that she did not recognise the results of Georgia's parliamentary election on Saturday, and that the country had been the victim of a Russian special operation.

Georgia's ruling party won nearly 54% of the vote in Saturday's election, the electoral commission said on Sunday, but opposition parties disputed the result and vote monitors reported significant violations.
