Georgian parliament has elected Kakha Kuchava, 42, as the new speaker of the state legislature, replacing Archil Talakvadze in the post.
86 MPs voted for Kuchava in the 150-member parliament, including opposition legislators from Citizens and European Socialists.
Kuchava holds a MA degree in Corporate Law from Nottingham Trent University.
"I am sure today we are all winners. Standing at the tribune of the parliament speaker is a huge responsibility," Agenda.ge cited Kuchava as saying.
