Abstrakt:

On 11 March, Romania's Constitutional Court (CCR) upheld the decision of the Central Electoral Office (BEC) to refuse to register the candidacy of anti-Western isolationist Călin Georgescu in the new presidential election scheduled for May. He has received the most votes in the first round of the election last November, which was annulled over violations by his campaign. However, the authorities have not yet provided clear evidence of his links to Russian attempts to influence the results. Until the election is resolved, the duties of the head of state are tasked to the Speaker of the Senate, as President Klaus Iohannis stepped down prematurely on 12 February. This has weakened Romania's voice in international forums at a time when the new U.S. administration is shaping its foreign policy, including relations with Europe.
