US' Biden 'deeply alarmed' by Georgia democratic 'backsliding'

U.S. President Joe Biden expressed alarm Tuesday over "backsliding" on democracy in Georgia, where election results have been bitterly contested by the pro-Western opposition.

"I have been deeply alarmed by the country's recent democratic backsliding," Biden said in a statement, saying the Caucasus nation's elections were marred by "voter intimidation and coercion."
