Presidential run-off pits pro-Trump nationalist against centrist mayor
Hindustan Times Delhi
|May 06, 2025
After comfortably topping Sunday's rerun of Romania's presidential election first round, far-Right leader George Simion — a fervent fan of US President Donald Trump — will face off against a centrist mayor in the second round on May 18.
BUCHAREST:
Known for his fiery speeches, Simion is the polar opposite of his reserved rival Nicusor Dan.
Simion, who heads the nationalist AUR party, already participated in last year's presidential vote, which was annulled over claims of Russian interference, and came in fourth with around 14%. The cancelled November ballot was topped by fellow far-Right candidate Calin Georgescu, before he was barred from the rerun in May.
