After initially admitting defeat in the elections, George Simion suddenly changed his tune, accusing without evidence of alleged French interference in favor of Nicușor Dan. Simion called on his supporters to protest, claiming that France manipulates social networks to influence Romanians' votes. These accusations come amid tensions between the Romanian far-right and pro-Europeans, and Simion even compared France to countries on the brink of self-destruction. Although there is no concrete evidence of such interference, his rhetoric reflects an anti-French campaign reminiscent of Russian propaganda.
