Hungarian PM Viktor Orban to visit Georgia

 

Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban, a staunch ally of the Georgian government and current holder of the EU's rotating presidency, is due to visit Georgia on Monday following disputed elections, Paralel.Az reports.

"Viktor Orban, the Prime Minister of Hungary, which holds the European Union presidency, will pay an official visit to Georgia on October 28-29," the Georgian government said in a statement on Sunday.

Orban had rushed to congratulate the ruling Georgian Dream party on Saturday after an exit poll predicted it would win, while another exit poll issued at the same time showed a pro-Western opposition union was ahead.

The Central Election Commission on Saturday confirmed Georgian Dream's victory but the opposition has refused to accept the result, saying the vote was "stolen".
