Romania arrests opposition leader, rigs ballot Putin-style
-
Terrified of democracy, EU-member Romania arrests its most popular leader, Calin Georgescu.
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c70eky7l6pxo
"His supporters said he was on his way to submit his candidacy for new elections in May, after last December's second-round run-off was annulled by the constitutional court"
That's right. He already won, or was set to win, Romania election. Pro-EU "Establishment" of Romania didn't like that & simply threw out election.
Then today (most recent news), they arrested him so he couldn't re-register to appear on ballot.
Romania behaves worse than Vladimir Putin.
Worse.
btw - It would be funny if these Romania prosecutors were same who faked charges against Tate brothers.
At behest of British & EU libs: Romania imprisoned Tates on charges so fake, even corrupt Romania felt ashamed & reversed course after several weeks.

Good comment (not mine).
[JD Vance, Munich speech last week]: The EU has abandoned democratic values. You just overturned the elections in Romania
[EU Leaders]: Lies! Disgrace! Fascist!
Also EU: arrests Romanian presidential candidate and his supporters as soon as JD leaves

Other commentary says, this is about NATO warmongers. Team Bloodthirsty who like war with Russia.
Romania is apparently,
-
trans-ship point for weapons from Pakistan(?) to Ukraine
-
slated for big NATO buildup
& Georgescu, plus ordinary Romanians, don't want that / rightly prefer Peace.
Still more commentary says, Georgescu is released - but under tight gag orders.
Charges against him - if this
is accurate - have -very- Soviet, Nazi Germany, North Korea sound.

JD Vance, “You don’t have shared values if you're jailing people...you don't have shared values if you’re canceling elections because you don’t like the result, and that happened in Romania, or if you're so afraid of your own people that you silence them.”
