How America’s online right became obsessed with a low-profile European country
- Romania, a country on Europe's eastern fringe, has become a surprising focus of attention for the US administration, with many in Romania stunned by this interest.
- This attention has centered on figures like Calin Georgescu, described as a Kremlin-friendly ultranationalist candidate, and Andrew Tate, charged with rape and human trafficking, who both deny the allegations.
- Georgescu, a 62-year-old former soil scientist who opposes sending aid to Ukraine and calls Vladimir Putin a 'patriot', was banned from standing in the May re-run of the Romanian presidential election after unexpectedly winning the first-round vote in November, a ban that outraged some American conservatives.
- According to the Financial Times, Richard Grenell reportedly pressed Romania's foreign minister to ease restrictions on the Tate brothers during talks at the Munich Security Conference, though Grenell has denied these reports, and Marietje Schaake told CNN that the American right had turned Georgescu into a symbol of what's wrong with European democracy.
- Oana Popescu-Zamfir stated that this situation has been unprecedented, as Georgescu's actions may help the Trump administration by creating a perception that the world is ideologically aligned with their beliefs, potentially undermining trust in elections.
