💨 Abstract

Romanians protested against the cancellation of their presidential election in December, where a little-known pro-Russian candidate won the first round. The Constitutional Court voided the election due to an unfair social media campaign suspected of being orchestrated by Russia. The decision weakened public trust in state institutions, polarized voters, and strengthened right-wing and ultranationalist parties.
