Georgia’s central election commission said it will partially recount ballots Tuesday after opposition parties denounced the weekend parliamentary election as “stolen”. Defying the EU’s concerns over the vote, Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban — current holder of the bloc’s rotating presidency and the Kremlin’s closest EU associate — arrived in Tbilisi on Monday and hailed the vote as democratic. Pro-Western opposition parties have refused to recognise the results of Saturday’s vote, which they claim was falsified in favour of the ruling Georgian Dream party.
