I confronted PM Orbán in Tbilisi regarding his route to Georgia.
Thanks to @splendid_pete you can find it here with English description!
The video is from the live broadcast of the ceremony from the Facebook page of Irakli Kobakhidze.
I can send the video for uploading.

#Gvote24: As a result of the analysis of the environment in the pre-election period and the fraud schemes used on the election day, as well as the unprecedented impact on the will of the voters and the facts of violence, we believe that the preliminary results published by the Central Election Commission do not reflect the will of the citizens of Georgia.

Yesterday and today, we are again on the road with the entire refugee team at @hhc_helsinki to monitor the situation of thousands of evicted refugees from #Ukraine. As of 21 Aug, ~75% of state-funded shelter places are terminated. 🧵

- @EU_Commission must start negotiations w HU to resolve this untenable situation and address shortcomings of the implementation of the Council Decision on temporary protection.
36hrs+ standoff ends with a temporary solution. Ppl are taken to other shelters, for 1 week. We are accompanying the people, me on a bus, my colleague driving behind. Unless the law changes, we will have the same crisis in a week, but @hhc_helsinki will continue to help them.

ICYMI: @StatewatchEU published this 2 weeks ago on the potential consequences of this evidence we submitted in the ST case proving @Frontex is aware of deadly pushbacks nitter.gq/front_LEX/status/18052…
CC: @seawatch_intl @CEARefugio @RefugeesinLibya
Statewatch's explainer on how our pending appeal in ST at the @EUCourtPress, that already includes evidence made public only recently that @Frontex had clear knowledge of persistent, serious violations of fundamental rights in Greece, might put an end to Frontex ops on the Aegean
Astonishing to see how the argument that Frontex presence contributes to human rights compliance in MSs is falling apart *AGAIN*, just as it did in Hungary. Read this horrific story supported by bold evidence on @front_LEX's fight to finally end impunity at Europe's borders.
As @Hibai_ writes, this was no accident. They were were thrown into the sea with their hands tied. “These reports are part of a complaint against Frontex at @EUCourtPress , filed by a survivor of the incident in Samos, through the NGO Front-lex”.

The insightful @Hibai_ of El País reveals incriminating evidence on the dead-by-drowning victims of Frontex’s operations in Greece: “These reports are part of a complaint against Frontex in @EUCourtPress , filed by a survivor of the incident in Samos, through the NGO Front-lex”
Los guardacostas griegos empujaron al agua a refugiados en al menos dos ocasiones en 2022 y cuatro personas se ahogaron. Así lo recogen informes de Frontex a los que hemos tenido acceso. Cuento esta bestialidad aquí:

"@Frontex FRO considers credible and likely that 11 individuals were pushed back from Chios island to Turkish territorial waters in August 2022 and left at sea by the Hellenic Coast Guard which resulted in the drowning of three migrants" We provided this evidence to Court, but🧵
It is 'credible', 'likely' and 'plausible' that four people drowned after being abandoned at sea by the Hellenic coast guard, according to an internal document from the EU's border agency Frontex.
