The most important moment of the Romanian elections was their cancellation in the first round, which surprisingly won the pro -Russian candidate Callin Georgescu. The Constitutional Court revealed, thanks to the honest work of Romanian secret services, that it was supported by Moscow both financially and influencing operations and disinformation campaign on social networks.
The courage of the Romanian Constitutional Court to command the secret services to disclose their findings to show up key. If they did not do so, today Romania should be a politician to sell the country to Russia.
Unifying pro -European forces as the key to success
It didn’t happen. The Russians headed for their support in repeated elections at George Simion, who in the first round defeated the pro -European candidate Nicušor Dan by more than 20 percent.
Before the other, however, all Romanian pro -European forces united in the support of the Mayor of Bucharest, and the voters rewarded them with the highest participation in the elections and voting for their candidate. Dan finally defeated his rival, won 56 percent of the votes, Simion only 44.
The differences between the two candidates cannot be even greater. Simion is against the support of Ukraine, according to him, it is a “foreign war” and to avoid the label that he is pro -Russian, he declares himself a follower Donald Trump. If he came to the Presidential Office, he would certainly try to get Romania from the EU and NATO thanks to the broad powers of the Romanian President. He fails, Nikusor Dan defeated him.
The new President is a guarantee of Romania’s stay in the EU and NATO
Unlike pro -Russian Simiona for the support of Ukraine, Nikusor Dan is quite right that Romania would be the next target of Russian soldiers after the conquest of Kiev.
On the other hand, Nicušor Dan is not a type of politics whose populists refer to the word progression. Surprisingly, he himself resigned from the leadership of his relatively successful party Let’s save Romania after he failed to enforce the protection of a traditional family and his deputies against his will supported the same -sex marriages in the parliament.
However, in the so -called. She does not live a traditional family, they have not married her girlfriend, but they have two beautiful children, a girl and a boy. Thanks to his centrist views, however, he gained support not only in Bucharest, but also voted in the Romanian countryside, which proved to be key.
Democracy must not die for beauty, it needs to be fought for
However, it is not only his legacy for the Slovak opposition. The unification of all pro -European forces, but mainly the courage of the Romanian Constitutional Court, contributed to the victory of the pro -European Nikušor San San with a great work, but mainly the courage of the Romanian Constitutional Court to reveal the Russian conspiracy and to abolish the first round of elections. It was a bit late, Moscow’s influence operations could be traced during the election campaign – but better late than never. Then the events have already taken on the domino slope ..
If the voters see that the state is strong enough to fight for its democracy and have the will to unite the will, then they are not afraid to express their opinion. And it is naturally pro -European, because we have already had the Communists here and Russian troops as well.
Both in Romania and Slovakia, there is no reason to cost this repetition of history. If the pro -democratic forces are united in Slovakia as in Romania, then the pro -Russian ones have to defeat easily in the next elections.
