サマリー
あらすじ・解説
We’re diving into election drama worldwide this week. In our news roundup, we discuss Japan’s election, Harris and Trump’s recent campaign rallies, and Israel’s most recent airstrike on Gaza. Our main story is all about the turbulent Georgian parliamentary election. Amid allegations of fraud, vote-rigging videos, and accusations of Russian influence, the pro-Russian Georgian Dream party claims victory, sparking massive protests. Georgian President Salome Zourabichvili, a former ally-turned-critic of Georgian Dream, calls the election results a "Russian special operation," and urges citizens to take to the streets. We explore the geopolitical impact, including Georgia’s EU aspirations and regional tensions, and discuss Russia's longstanding influence on this strategically critical nation.
