Georgia's parliament on Wednesday confirmed Irakli Garibashvili as the ex-Soviet state's new prime minister, replacing his close ally billionaire Bidzina Ivanishvili as premier. "The parliament has approved the new government by 93 votes to 19," parliament speaker David Usupashvili said. The vote will make 31-year-old Garibashvili -- who served as interior minister during Ivanishvili's year in charge -- the youngest serving head of government in Europe. President Giorgi Margvelashvili -- another Ivanishvili loyalist -- will now officially ratify the decision.
