Romania is currently grappling with significant election interference, with accusations of Russian-sponsored cyber attacks influencing the presidential race. Pro-Russian candidate Călin Georgescu, suspected of benefiting from a covert TikTok campaign, has emerged as a front-runner despite widespread concerns over foreign interference. The European Union has ordered TikTok to preserve key election data following allegations of manipulation tied to the Romanian political landscape. As Romanians head to the polls, the nation stands at a crossroads, with pro-Western parties hoping to fend off the rising influence of far-right factions amidst a backdrop of escalating tensions with Moscow.
