Romanian election candidate condemns decision to cancel vote after 'Russian interference'

Romania's top court decided to annul the results of the first round of the country's presidential election after claims of Russian interference.

The unprecedented decision came after declassified intelligence documents alleged Russia was behind a campaign to promote far-right candidate Calin Georgescu.

His rival, pro-EU Elena Lasconi, of the Save Romania Union party, criticised the court's decision, arguing the vote should have continued and respected the will of the Romanian people.
