In recent days, Romania has witnessed significant unrest following the barring of far-right candidate Călin Georgescu from the presidential election rerun. Protesters have taken to the streets, reacting to what they perceive as an assault on democracy, while Georgescu’s supporters have expressed outrage over the decision, leading to violent clashes. Despite the bans, the Romanian far-right continues to strategize for victory, with claims of alleged interference and a divided political climate influenced by external powers. Georgescu is expected to challenge the election ban in the courts, igniting discussions about the state of democracy in Romania amid rising tensions and division within the populace.
