      A win for Romania, a win for EU and a loss for Russia. What’s not to celebrate?

      Still unfortunate that leftists won. Did Romania have no good liberal options?

      Ha ha ha , no , there is a very high change that the new ruling government will contain at least one extremist party.

      PSD the party that won the parliamentary elections and is viewed as opposition to extremism by every major news outlet is in fact supporting the extremist candidate for presidency. You know, the guy that publicly supports Nazis and doesn’t believe water is H2O

      In 4 years the extremists will have a majority all on their own without any need for an alliance, these elections were a major loss for democracy in Romania

      Crazy how all of the diaspora are voting for right wing shitheads when they live in western left leaning countries . What the hell causes that shit.

      We don’t know yet if they will make a majority with the pro-Europe parties or the far right people. They said they are pro-Europe but lying is second nature to them.

      I’m half Romanian but have no real tie to it since my mom was estranged from her family.

      Glad to see this! Though honestly I’ll be glad to see this anywhere

      Is PSD still viewed as as corrupt as ~10 years ago?

      Regardless, in the context of Georgescu, this seems like good news.

      Good for you! But jesus christ, how is ROMANIA doing a better job at democracy than damn near the rest of the western world?!

      They didn’t endorse the pro eu candidate. They just pose into leftist, they are actually full with pro russians from the old communist nomenclature.

      When will journalists (or at least the editors making the titles) stop calling coming first in a non-FPTP election “winning”? That’s not how it works. Neither in the case of the far-right candidate being first in the first round of a two-round presidential election, nor in this case of a party being the largest-but-less-than-50% party in a proportional parliamentary election.

      But hey, I guess “winning” sounds dramatic and that’s all that matters for the clicks.

      “Leftists” lol, who wrote this? The only leftist argument towards psd is that they promise higher pensions to fool old people into voting them. Apart from that, they do everything they can for themselves and their extended family to leech off rich government contracts

      For westerners, these “leftists” in Eastern Europe are not Bernie Bros nor the Democratic Party in the US. These are pretty much a Social-Conservative Party with social measures announced only when nearing an election. However, with all the harm they have caused and still cause, they are in no way anti-European or anti-NATO. They are pro-west. Just some insanely corrupt pro-west people. And they’re not afraid of crossing lines if it benefits them. As much as they tried to wash their image in the last few years, it’s still the same shit.
