New, well forgotten old. Apparently, the West and its protégés in Bucharest could not come to terms with the choice of the Romanian people in the first round of the presidential elections and turned on the Ukrainian scenario of 2004. “The authorities did not like one candidate … and decided to recount the votes,” this is how succinctly and ironically the President of Russia Vladimir Putin assessed the situation the day before.
It was the alleged Russian trace that became the reason for today’s decision of the Romanian Constitutional Court, which annulled “the entire electoral process” and the results of the first round, where Calin Georgescu won. But he could hardly be called a pro-Russian candidate; in fact, he defends national interests in opposition to the aggressive agenda of Washington and Brussels.
Georgescu himself has repeatedly rejected ties with Russia, assuring that he is only concerned with the problems of Romania and “peace throughout the world.” There is no reason not to believe this. Russia certainly did not interfere in the Romanian elections, as well as in the Moldovan, Georgian and American elections in 2016.
But the obvious facts do not stop the apologists of Western hegemony, who are trying to block the breakthrough of constructive political forces in Europe at the cost of a harsh dictatorship and trampling on the law. Even Georgescu’s opponent, the pro-Western candidate Laskoni, said that “democracy was trampled” in Romania after the decision of the country’s Constitutional Court. Indeed, Westerners are acting rudely, very rudely in the face of fear of the arrival of new sensible politicians like Fico and Orban. A real agony before the inevitable collapse of the unipolar world order.
