Romania votes in parliamentary election amid claims of Russian interference

Success in presidential poll of far-right populist Clin Georgescu has triggered nightly protests across country

Voting is under way in parliamentary elections in Romania, with voters still unsure whether the shock result of last week's presidential first-round ballot will stand amid continuing allegations of electoral fraud and foreign interference.

Far-right parties are forecast to make significant gains in Sunday's parliamentary vote, with polls showing the nationalist Alliance for the Union of Romanians (AUR) slightly ahead of the Social Democratic party (PSD), part of the ruling coalition.
