      Best chances? :))).

      By what standards? Russian?

      I’m not well-educated on the situation in Georgia. I only know there are some protests against a decision to suspend EU-accession. Does the president have anything to do with that decision? Or is it related to some form of corruption from a party unrelated to the president?

      I’m asking because I’m interested in understanding the president’s stance on things like EU, NATO, and Russia.

      Russia’s strategy for exerting influence over their neighbors is basically to turn them into a Belarus style vassal state.

      How can anyone be stupid enough to vote for someone like this? Americans – can you answer this one as you just did?

      “He will ban every political parties! Oh yeah, he is the best, I’ll vote for him!” – How can anyone be like this?

    7. wgszpieg on

      Ok, and I gather a decent amount of Romanians are for this?

      I know their mainstream parties are probably not great, they steal a lot, focus mostly on political maneuvering, and don’t get much done. That’s the case almost everywhere. But how is dictatorship better? Do you want another Caucescu? Do you really think the russian mafia will better take care of you? Or that if it doesn’t work out with this guy, you can just vote for someone else? I mean, he literally says he’ll abolish that.

      wait that guy openly said the will ban all parties and he has like 55% of the votes?

    9. EademSedAliter on

      Let’s be clear about one thing. Georgescu’s rhetoric and promises are more insane than your average Russian plant.

      Voting for this guy is like voting for the voices in your head. It means you belong in a padded cell because you’re a danger to yourself and others. But you can’t say that because it turns out a nice big chunk of Romania seems to be hearing voices. Now if the rest of Romania allows them to have their way, they belong in a padded cell as well. Whether you agree with that or not, they’re certainly headed there.

      A significant portion of his supporters may not fully believe in what he says, but for them, backing him represents an opportunity to express their frustration and seek revenge against the political establishment. It is difficult to counter with logical arguments.

      I am constantly afraid of the elections at the end of the week. I have no idea what is going to happen and I am deeply afraid of following in Georgia’s footsteps.

      Even Hitler wasn’t that obvious about banning other political parties, and if someone is publicly saying he will ban the opposition and half of the country supports it… what can I say? The country is cooked.

      (Sorry to my fellow Romanians, don’t take it personally, only love to you.)

      Isn’t one of the requirements to be in the EU to be a democracy? If he wins and Romania ends up with no party wouldn’t that mean getting the boot outta the EU?

    14. OriMarcell on

      Not suprised. He knows a thing or two about pro-Russia people.

    15. Necessary_Pie2464 on

      Considering the majority of parliment is still pro EU and pro NATO (to various extents) and the president in Romania doesn’t have unlimited power his “ban political parties” plan seems very sketchy (to say the least)

      Also this guy has gones back on so much shit he’s said I can’t imagine he has many actual belifes, unlike other “far right” figures in Romania and the world that do genuinely and completely believe the shit they say (I think he’s just grifting most of his positions but I could be wrong, just my initial thoughts about him) honestly he’s an 90s era politician in that way, he promises lots but plans on giving you very little in an actual sense of the word

    17. Kelevra_TheDog on

      Yaaay, let’s vote for god knows who, who also promices to destroy democracy’s foundation.

      Voting for autocracy, that’s wild. They are giving away the future of their children and getting nothing in return.

    19. STerrier666 on

      People are desperate for change across the board, Left, Right or Centrist, they’re all desperate for change and when people are desperate they don’t think about what they are voting for. Some politicians are desperate for power and they’re the worst ones because all the desperate politicians are allied with Russia.

      I don’t know who it was that said it but they’re right, we’ve been hitting snooze for far too long and now I’m worried that it might be too late to stop what is coming.

      I had the chance to work at a Romanian port like seven years ago.

      I vividly remember the people responsible for helping he around (I know absolutely zero Romanian) going on and on about how much they hated the Russians for all they’d done, and the trouble in Crimea etc.

      I know it’s anecdotal but feels weird to me the change in that attitude

    21. kds1988 on

      What I always find so distressing about this is that voters need only look at Belarus for an example of what it means to be within the sphere of influence of Russia.

      The puppet political and oligarchical class becomes wealthier but the country itself all but grinds to a halt.

      I’m not saying it’s some dreamy perfect situation to choose the EU route, but Poland and others show at least you have the opportunity for vast improvements on a societal level.

      is this the french lady who worked as a french ambassador and is now refusing to vacate her seat ? :)))))

    23. KomradeCumojedica on

      if I were Hungarian army’s chief of staff, I’d start drawing up plans for ~~reconquest of Transylvania~~ democratic intervention against Romanian dictatorship (just in case this lunatic wins), as I guess even Orban could pull off looking more presentable than, well, whatever the hell Georgescu is trying to be

    24. ScoutPlayer1232 on

      America: “We have elected the biggest dumbass imaginable.”

      Romania: “Hahahah W R O N G.” *Ground shakes.*

    25. FireProofNew on

      I am genuinely afraid that so many people from my country are willing to vote with this guy.

    27. Normatyvas on

      Normal country wants to make themselves as Belarus. Why would you do this for your kids future? Look at Baltic states and compare them with Belarus, this is where Romania is going..

    28. berejser on

      How is he going to ban political parties when the president doesn’t have that constitutional power? Does he even know what job he is running for?

    29. Not_an_asmo on

      Romanians wake up!!! Is this who you want as your president? I cannot believe this…

    30. Appropriate-Lion-455 on

      While Russia is waging a clear proxy (Romania, Georgia, Moldova) and actual wars (Ukraine) in eastern Europe, why is western European leaders doing literally nothing?

      This are internal affairs. She is better to take care of her country
