In Ukraine, nearly complete election results show opposition leader Viktor Yanukovych winning a narrow victory in Sunday's run-off presidential election. With almost all the ballots counted, Mr Yanukovych has more than 48 percent of the vote compared to about 46 per cent for his opponent, Prime Minister Yulia Tymoshenko. However, Ms Tymoshenko refused to concede defeat and may launch a legal challenge to the election results. Ms Tymoshenko accused pro-Yanukovych forces of ballot-box stuffing in Russian-speaking eastern Ukraine. For his part, Mr Yanukovych has claimed victory in what would be an astonishing comeback for the candidate who supports closer ties with Russia.
