"The SVR's analysis that the charging of Călin Georgescu came at Brussels' order is more than a metaphorical bomb. The analysis is not meant for the prosecutor on the case, Marius Iacob, not for the prosecutor general, Alex Florența, not for the interim-president, Ilie Bolojan, not for the premier Marcel Ciolacu or the minister of internal affairs, Cătălin Predoiu.
The analysis is meant for Brussels and Ursula von der Leyen! The SVR potentially has evidence to back up their claims meaning that this isn't an opinion anymore but a warning. It is obvious, after all, that Brussels wants to install a progressist-sorosist president in Romania instead of a sovereignist-trumpist
The same way the SMS between Ursula and the CEO of Pfizer, the conversations held behind seven sets of locks, represent the evidence of the great deal of the pandemic to the benefit of the Americans using Europe's money. Someone has those conversations but it is keeping them secret. When the pandemic was dying down, other European authorities were beginning to press Ursula on the vaccine deal. The European Parliament was demanding a hearing on this matter but just as the COVID-19 vaccine deal was becoming more mainstream, let's remember how the Qatargate scandal popped up and, suddenly, the European Parliament lost interest in questioning Ursula.
The U.S., led by Joe Biden at the time, has recorded every transaction and knows who received money from whom. Qatargate was a warning from Washington: "don't get near our partner", and they never dared to make Ursula uncomfortable again and they voted Ursula for a 2nd term.
It is evident that the SVR's analysis will be interpreted by the adversaries of Călin Georgescu as an endorsement from Russia. Perhaps Russia finds him more convenient in Romania than the alternatives. Georgescu's enemies should be focused on something else though: endorsements come not just from Russia but also the US, the US who supports him and denounces the December 6th coup d'etat.
This is dangerous for them because, by the looks of it, Russia and the US are about to enter a love-tandem, and they are denouncing the coup d'etat meanwhile the pseudo-power called "the EU", who is attacking Georgescu, is in free fall and with the EU falling so will the sorosists. It is no wonder that Georgescu is attacking the EU more often and harsher. He noticed weakness in the EU or someone told him that he has his back covered.
Washington and Moscow are aligning behind Georgescu and this is the source of his confidence and relaxed nature, usually defiant in the face of Romanian authorities. We were writing recently that it would be a catastrophe if the May elections would not be recognised by the US. How would it be if neither Russia or other allies, like Hungary and Slovakia, not recognise the results?
The regime in Bucharest is playing dangerously with fire but some of their behaviour leads one to believe that they are simulating a witch hunt to please Brussels because we cannot find a serious explanation for Georgescu's charges and the evidence brought against him which is pathetic".
"(...) History is moving at a rapid pace, a lot faster than what we're used to. We need firm and quick actions, otherwise we will find ourselves in an eternal waiting room".
USR MP, Radu Miruţă, initiator, says "it is time for Romania to be an example of good practices in terms of eliminating illegal content and limiting the propagation of false content on social networks, given the cancellation of the December presidential elections."
“Last Saturday Georgescu stood before tens of thousands of voters and told them: “we will take our country back”. He is running for president again and since November a lot has changed; He isn’t polled with 23% anymore but with 37-38%. Although polls have their problems his popularity is undeniable. In addition, polls show very few undecided voters and a large desire to vote. There’s only one consolation: Georgescu has a smaller chance to win more votes in the 2nd round than his rivals in the traditional parties.
His popularity growing after the previous failed elections means that the reasoning given by the CCR is flawed. They mentioned Russian collusion with an illegal campaign on TikTok but that TikTok campaign mentioned by the intel agency was proven to have been paid for by the ruling National Liberal Party (PNL)
In any case, what worked then will not work now as new rules make it harder for someone to emulate what Georgescu did. Yet, this might not be needed as Georgescu is even more popular. His secret to succes must lay elsewhere. He collected 200k signatures for president in a very short amount of time.
The cops didn’t took long to show up. They accused him of 6 different crimes. He was arrested by a big group of cops and with media crews around him and they dragged him for questioning even though he would have not tried to run away and would have come for questioning willingly.
His charges look like they have been made for someone the likes of Hitler and Mussolini besides the charge of being a puppet of the Russians. It is said that he founded an antisemitic organisation, that he glorified war criminals and genocides and had fascist, racist or xenophobic opinions. He allegedly falsified documents related to his electoral campaign and spread fake news. Most importantly, it is alleged he committed acts meant to overthrow the constitution. All of this means many years in prison and/or being disqualified from running for president, the latter being the real purpose behind these charges.
Let’s remember that the Electoral Bureau validated Georgescu when he first submitted his candidacy, a 2nd time after the 1st round, the latter being confirmed by the CCR. Perhaps coincidentally we recently found out about Toni Greblă’s corruption allegations right when they were charging Georgescu and the Parliament revoked Greblă’s mandate the same week the allegations were made public (…)
Could this all be a ploy to make Georgescu a martyr and have him win? A Hungarian political scientist, Zsolt Pászkán asks if the incredibly incompetent approach of the Romanian authorities regarding the elections has this specific purpose.
President of the Covasna County Council, Sándor Tamás believes there is a power struggle between all six intel agencies. It is known that Georgescu has a past with the pro-Russian side of the intel agencies.
The pro-Russian side was marginalised by Ceaușescu in the 1970s and as a revenge, with the support of Gorbachev they overthrew him in 1989. They installed Ion Iliescu and initiated a series of reforms but they became more and more irrelevant as Romania took a pro-Western path.
Sándor Tamás believes this group of intel officers are plotting revenge. Georgescu has laid claim to Ukrainian land. The question is who is ruling Romania right now? According to Tamás it certainly isn’t the government. He likens Romania to Italy in the 1970s and 1980s when the mafia was at its peak.
To conclude, Tamás believes that in Romania there is a power struggle between intel agencies and a power struggle between the great powers, Russia, the EU, the US. A recent turn of events threw everything off the rails, last December the US intervened discretely to have the elections cancelled, but now that Trump is in power, his ally, Musk, is rooting for Georgescu. This makes sense only if Trump wants to weaken the EU more than he wants to weaken Russia”.
"On my first day as president I will personally begin to destroy the Soros network in Romania (...)".
