My plea for an EU that becomes aware of the global role it could have and takes a more active role in every geopolitical game that shapes the international system. On a panel with General David Petraeus at #Raisina2025 by the ⁦ORF⁩ youtu.be/0RcVbmuYw4Q

Far-right candidate Simion's lead in Romania's presidential election reflects public discontent with political elites. To protect democracy, parties must better represent their voters & engage with them in a fair information environment, says Oana Popescu-Zamfir. carnegieendowment.org/europe/strateg…

Party leaders in Romania prioritized loyalty & corruption over competence, causing discontent within the population. That is why George Simion, a far-right candidate, now finds himself on the verge of victory in the presidential election, says Oana Popescu-Zamfir. carnegieendowment.org/europe/strateg…

Romania risks joining the ranks of Europe's populist nationalist axis. If Simion wins the presidential election this Sunday, the EU's pushback against Russia and its ability to face Trump's trade war will be further endangered, argues Oana Popescu-Zamfir. carnegieendowment.org/europe/strateg…

Simion va dori să-și pună oameni-cheie în poziții de influență: în […] instituții care au de-a face cu combaterea amenințărilor hibride. În momentul în care România își retrage sprijinul față de Ucraina, și partenerii își vor retrage sprijinul față de noi pressone.ro/oana-popescu-z…

With Nicușor Dan winning Romania's presidential election against all odds, the country has dodged a bullet—for now. To restore sound democratic competition, political parties need to become representative of their electorate again, writes Oana Popescu-Zamfir. carnegieendowment.org/europe/strateg…

Romanian president Nicușor Dan in Warsaw, ahead of symbolic, important elections amid Russian interference, telling Polish friends that it can be done. Romania now a model for Europe, giving hope that the wave of populist nationalism and far right politics can be reversed.

I have described for Politiken (Denmark) how foreign interference attempted to use social media algorithms to try and manipulate elections in Romania. They failed this time - but more attempts will follow across Russia's (wide!) sphere of interest: politiken.dk/internationalt…
