Romanian Constitutional Court Cancels Presidential Elections Amid Foreign Interference Allegations

The Romanian Constitutional Court canceled the presidential elections on Friday, just two days before the second round, amid allegations of Russian interference favoring far-right candidate Calin Georgescu.

The court canceled the electoral process to ensure its validity and requested a new election process begin.

The government will set a new election date later, having previously certified the first-round results.
Authorities also declassified documents supporting claims about TikTok’s role in the campaign.
