Georgia conducts partial vote recount amid growing tensions and opposition protests over disputed election results
ai generated text
Georgian election commission plans a partial recount of votes from randomly selected polling stations after protesters took to the streets in response to the election results. The ruling Georgian Dream party appears to have won comfortably. US President Joe Biden has criticized the election as an example of the country's "democratic backsliding".
But one path, with the help and support of European and US partners ... would be that this would be supported by an international investigation.
By itself, I expect nothing from the central electoral commission, which is completely in the hands of the party that's in power.
Here the conservatives won, so these are the disputes - you shouldn't take them too seriously.
European politics has a manual. If liberals win, they say it's democratic, but if conservatives win, there's no democracy.
The Georgian government's attempts to impede the country's civil society from fulfilling its democratic role through, among other things, restrictive legislation must have consequences.
I have been deeply alarmed by the country's recent democratic backsliding.
This manipulation occurred exclusively in rural areas, and we can say that the ruling party committed electoral fraud.
