9 March 2025
Romania’s electoral bureau on Sunday rejected the candidacy submitted by far-right hopeful Călin Georgescu for a re-run of last year’s presidential election in May, sparking outrage among his supporters in Bucharest.
Last week, prosecutors indicted Georgescu on numerous charges, including making “false statements” over his campaign financing.
