Viktor Orbán has conceded in a speech to supporters, telling them: “The result of the election is clear and painful.”
I assume by “painful” he means “delightful”.

Belarus hasn’t had a technically democratic regime for 16 years, but a straight up dictator for 32 (there’s never been an election in the country he didn’t “win”). And it’s in an economic and defense union with Russia (integrated even closer than EU countries are with each other). That’s a whole different league.
of course he’s won them all. he’s that good.
let me finish. at cheating.
Shame. So revolution or nothing basically? Or perhaps when the leader (I forget his name…Lukchencko?) dies?
Usually when a long-time dictator dies he picked a successor. They are not always succesful at continuing the dictatorship but i don’t expect the country to suddenly return to democracy when Lukashenko dies. Would be really really nice though.
