Summary
Călin Georgescu, a far-right Romanian presidential candidate with pro-Russian views, called Ukraine a “fictitious state” and claimed its division among neighboring countries is inevitable.
He suggested Romania should reclaim Northern Bukovyna, Budzhak, and Northern Maramureş.
Georgescu, who opposes Ukrainian grain exports and military aid, remains the leading candidate ahead of Romania’s May election.
His remarks align with broader nationalist and revisionist narratives.
Bro is Balkans_irl but unironically. 💀
Definitely. He’s really vibing with “boomers” that are nostalgic for our flavour of communism, even matching the speech cues. He’s whacked in the head something special and, while we always had a percentage of voters ready to go for this type of character, now there’s a lot more and they all behave like they’re in a cult. Dark times ahead.
