Romania has annulled the results of the first round of the country’s elections on the grounds that Russia interfered in the outcome.
The election, in which the right-wing firebrand Calin Georgescu narrowly topped the poll, means that Sunday’s run-off election is cancelled.
“The electoral process for the election of the President of Romania will be resumed in its entirety, and the Government will set a new date for the election of the President of Romania, as well as a new time schedule for the implementation of the necessary actions,” the court said in a statement on Friday.

They added that the decision was intended to “ensure the fairness and legality of the electoral process,” and that a lengthier explanation would be given at a later date.
Georgescu was scheduled to go head to head against centrist rival Elena Lasconi, whose party is seeking close ties with the European Union.
It’s happening:
The judges of the Constitutional Court decided to cancel the first round of the presidential elections, following declassified information from last week’s CSAT meeting

However, Lasconi appeared to criticize the decision, accusing the court of “destroying” the country’s democracy.
“Today is the moment when the Romanian state trampled over democracy. God, the Romanian people, the truth and the law will prevail and will punish those who are guilty of destroying our democracy,” she said after the annulment.
Outgoing Romanian Prime Minister Marcel Ciolacu said the decision was “the only correct solution after the declassification of the documents… which show that the result of the Romanians’ vote was blatantly distorted as a result of Russia’s intervention.”
Georgescu, a right-wing nationalist with no political party of his own and who did most his campaigning on TikTok, is terrifying both the Romanian and European establishment by slamming organizations such as the European Union, the World Economic Forum and the United Nations.
He is also a strong advocate of Christianity, accepts that so-called climate change is a fraud and has argued that many elites are involved in high-level pedophile rings.
“In a sense that UN could be a fantastic, can have a fantastic role,” he said in a recent interview.” But it’s not. Because it’s totally under control of the oligarchs.”
“The problem is that these oligarchs, all of them, are related with the system of the pedophilia. Because we know that there are more than 8 million children per year, which they disappear.”
A similar globalist coup is currently playing out in Germany, where intelligence officials on attempting to outlaw the conservative Alternative for Germany (AFD) on the grounds that it promotes extremism.
These are their new tactics. If the left-wing establishment doesn’t like the result, they will simply cancel it.
