Romania has banned FRONTRUNNER from participating in the country’s presidential election, condemning one step as a “tyranny”, and that despite the victory exhibitions, taking into account the voters’ wishes.

The country’s Electoral Bureau announced on Sunday that Călin Georgecu’s candidacy was invalid after objections to which he violated the laws against extremism.

Georgescu condemned what he said, “is a direct blow to the heart of democracy all over the world.” In a message placed in X, he added: “Europe is now a dictatorship, Romania is under tyranny.”

The candidate now has 24 hours to file a complaint, which the Constitutional Court has another 48 hours, given the final decision on the ban on Wednesday evening.

The repeated election was scheduled for May 4, 18, after the first round of November, the Constitutional Court was canceled by the Constitutional Court on Russia’s mixtures in favor of Georgescu.

Recent polls suggest that he is Frrontrunner, for whom it is a decision for him more than 40 percent.

US Vice President JD Vance has condemned the annulment of last year’s elections as European Supporters of Democracy. Vens accused the Romanian authorities to bow down in “Flimsy” intelligence and to put the alleged pressure of other European capitals.

Proponents of her case have been working to make the actual transcript of this statement available online.

Elon Musk, Donald Trump and billionaire who support Georgescu have called “crazy” in X.

The Electoral Bureau stated that it received more than 1,000 complaints against Georgescu’s application, mainly related to the approval of the powers of the world’s World War II fascists.

The long candidate gave Nazi gesture to supporters when leaving the prosecutor’s office listening to his application in Bucharest this month.

The decision on Sunday is likely to annoy many Romanians who have long rejected the main parties as corrupt and ineffective.

The far right-handed sides have been monitored by a third of the Romanian legislature since December.

George Simion, the leader of the largest similar group in the parliament, labeled the “continuation of a coup” on Sunday. He previously said that Georgescu should be banned, he was running in his place.
