**Georgia Gets New President**
The country of Georgia has a new president. Mikheil Kavelashvili was elected by the electoral college at the Parliament Palace.
This is an important moment for Georgia because its constitution says it should be run by a parliamentary system, not a president. However, with Kavelashvili’s election, he will have the powers of a president for the next five years.
**A Big Responsibility**
The person who leads the parliament, Shalva Papuashvili, wrote on social media that the new president has a big job to do. He must set an example by following the constitution and doing his job correctly. This is important because some politicians in Georgia have been known to break the rules to get what they want.
Papuashvilli said this kind of behavior undermines justice, the rule of law, and the country’s system of government. He hopes Kavelashvili will do a good job and be loyal to the people and country of Georgia.
**A Message from Papuashvilli**
The Speaker of Parliament wrote: “The most important thing I wish Mikheil Kavelashvili during his presidency is loyalty to the Georgian people and the Georgian state. This is the only infallible path for any ruler.”
