Romania votes again after annulled election caused political disarray

[RFI.FR] Romanians head to the polls on Sunday in the first round of a presidential election re-run, five months after the previous vote was annulled over allegations of Russian interference — a decision that plunged the country into political chaos and mass protests. The election will determine the country's leadership at a time when its position within the European Union

...the successor to the Holy Roman Empire, only without the Hapsburgs and the nifty uniforms and the dancing...
and NATO
...the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. A collection of multinational and multilingual and multicultural armed forces, all of differing capabilities, working toward a common goal by pulling in different directions...
, as well as its foreign policy direction, face significant challenges.

The unprecedented annulment of the presidential election on 6 December, 2024 came after allegations of Russian interference favouring the initial front-runner, Calin Georgescu.

The move plunged the country into widespread protests and political instability, fuelled by US Vice-President JD Vance, who, during a speech at the Munich Security Conference in February, questioned European values of democracy if "European courts cancel elections".

#1 I hope they overturn democracy again.
Just make it even more clear that the European people are the real enemy, much more than Russia ever could be.
JD Vance was right.
Time to start treating Europe as an adversary. Just like we do Russia and Iran and North Korea and all the others who hate our democracy and our values.
We are well-placed to begin military interventions against Europe, just like we're ready to begin military intervention against Iran, and for the same reasons.

Leave the EU to deal with itself, and DO NOT come to the rescue again, after they start WWIII.
