MOSCOW — Claims of Russia’s alleged interference in Georgia’s recent parliamentary elections are “completely unfounded,” Kremlin Spokesman Dmitry Peskov said Monday.

“We strongly reject such accusations,” Peskov said, adding that Moscow does not meddle in the internal affairs of Georgia and does not intend to do so.

On Saturday, Georgia held its parliamentary elections under a fully proportional system for the first time. Almost 90 percent of voters cast their ballots via electronic devices installed at the polling stations.

The ruling Georgian Dream party has won the parliamentary elections, the Central Election Commission said late Saturday. Georgian President Salome Zourabichvili rejected the results of parliamentary elections on Sunday, calling them grossly rigged.
