Hundreds of thousands of Romanians furious with the current government for the cancellation of the presidential election marched today (12) through the capital Bucharest to demand that the vote should proceed and that outgoing – and by now illegitimate – President Klaus Iohannis should resign.
Reuters reported:
“In a move that polarized voters, Romania’s top court voided the presidential election on Dec. 6, two days before the second round.
The cancellation came after state documents showed frontrunner Calin Georgescu, a critic of NATO, had benefited from an unfair social media campaign likely to have been orchestrated by Russia, accusations Moscow has denied.”
Reuters is lying, here – the documents show no proof whatsoever of Russian involvement, and the ‘campaign’ they object to was proven to have been financed by Romanians.
Romania’s top court ordered a re-run of the election. Governing party leaders have agreed – not yet officially – party to hold the two rounds on May 4 and May 18.
Illegitimate President Iohannis, whose term expired on Dec. 21, vows to stay on ‘until his successor is elected’.
Romanians are demanding the resignation of Klaus Iohannis, who is illegally occupying the position of President of Romania, as well as that of the entire government

“’Our right to vote was broken’, said Bogdan Danila, a 43-year-old truck driver. ‘In addition, Iohannis was in power for ten years and did nothing for the people, while parties betrayed us, they are all corrupt. We want something else’.
[…] ‘Authorities must say why they cancelled the election, we want to see the evidence’, said Cornelia, 57, an economist wrapped in a Romanian flag who declined to give her last name. ‘At this rate we won’t be voting anymore, they will impose a leader like in the old days’.”
They have an established history of dealing with this kind of thing, as the Ceaucescus learned.
This is most underplayed story of the year.
Romania cancelling their election is a big scandal
“We only believe in democracy when the election goes our way.”
I see some judges hanging from their heels in the near future. Well-deserved in my opinion.
I bet CNN is all over this. /s
Trump should send Lindsey Graham to straighten this out and then leave him there.
The Romanian Government must now make a TOUGH CHOICE. Either continue taking orders from the Neocons and turn their country into a One Party State, or allow the country to remain a Democracy.
For historical context, the last time Romania was a One Party State, it didn’t end very well for those in charge.
USAID is an entity that can be defunded, discontinued and investigated thoroughly.
I was going to say something similar. The Romanian people are not to be taken lightly.
Don’t honk off the people of Romania.

Romanian Term Limits
Leaders of Romania sound like our Dimocrap party.
The only significance to this episode is that the powers that be were blindsided by this, just like they were blindsided by Trump in 2016.
Whether there was or was not a Russian social media campaign is irrelevant. If there was, why did so many pay attention to it? What they simply can't fathom is that large pluralities of the population expect their national governments to actually look after the interests of their nationals and not neoliberal globalism.
BUCHAREST, Romania (AP) — Tens of thousands protested in Romania’s capital on Sunday against a top court’s decision last month to annul the presidential election after an outsider candidate unexpectedly emerged as the frontrunner.
That would significantly more than 20,000.
But, who wouldn't expect another lie from Zeeper, in this case one fully supporting undermining free and fair elections?
You're the one supporting the equivalent by Western globalists that is the equivalent of Soviet expansion.
I am pointing out that, in fact, if the globalists controlling European countries actually had a grip on reality, they wouldn't be surprised that a little Russian money supporting genuine political opposition goes a long way.
With respect to Ukraine, I simply find the globalists accidental allies. But only in that regard, the same way I find many of Sander's or Warren's complaints about the corporate managerial class to be correct. I just find their cures to be worse than the disease. In Ukraine's case, Russia is the disease.
The former EU Commissioner admitted the EU was behind this and will do the same to other countries should they vote for the “wrong” candidate.

Payback's a mother, right Nicolae and Elena?
It's amusing to watch the Zeepers scream about Russia while siding with Soviet-style tactics to oppress free elections.
