The AUR party signed a contract with American lobbying firms LaBruna and Obsidian, aiming to secure a meeting with the President of the United States. According to available information, the meeting with Donald Trump was no longer possible as he canceled his visit to Mar-a-Lago, and according to the contract, our compatriots were supposed to at least meet with JD Vance for a photo and a good word. The issue raised by AUR is that at the time of the cancellation of the meeting with Trump, the AUR delegation was already in the states and had spent a lot of money. The same companies promised that the Romanian delegation would at least meet with Marco Rubio, the U.S. Secretary of State. According to documents, they were given a date and place for the meeting, but in classic style, so as not to leave with their heads held high from American soil, this meeting was canceled. Ultimately, the party that holds 18% of the Romanian parliament, an ally state of the U.S., was pushed into a meeting with an undersecretary from the Department of Homeland Security. Now Simion is seeking $4.5 million in damages in a compensation lawsuit, while trying to distance himself from the stain of collaboration with lobbyists.
