Trump asks Romania to lift restrictions on Andrew Tate
The Independent
|February 18, 2025
Donald Trump's administration has applied pressure on Romanian authorities to remove travel restrictions on Andrew Tate and his brother.
Andrew and his brother Tristan have been accused of various allegations in Romania, including criminal charges of human trafficking, rape and forming a criminal gang to sexually exploit women.
The self-proclaimed misogynist and his brother are still facing charges in Romania. They are currently “under judicial control”, meaning he can travel through Romania "while adhering to the required legal conditions". Both deny wrongdoing.
The Financial Times reported the Tates’s case was brought up by US officials in a phone call with the Romanian government last week.
When President Trump's special envoy Richard Grenell met with the Romanian foreign minister at the Munich Security conference in Germany, he then brought up the subject once more, multiple sources told the Financial Times.
