While I have some serious misgivings about Tucker Carlson, it is great to have an opportunity to hear the elected leader of Romania explain what happened in his own words. Not the sitting leader of course, that doesn’t happen very often anymore. The man who was elected to lead Romania and was then arrested and disqualified because he was elected.

Romanian Supreme Court overturns election of 19,000,000 people’s votes
From YouTube description:
The favourite to win Romania’s controversial presidential election has launched an extraordinary series of attacks in an exclusive interview with Sky News, less than a day after the election was cancelled. Calin Georgescu, the populist politician who rose from obscurity to the brink of victory, said he had been the victim of a “coup d’etat” that had exposed “the corrupted regime” of his nation. He said the court that had cancelled the election, pointing to the impact of an alleged Russian interference campaign, was “a dictatorship” designed to protect “the oligarch system that wants to protect what it has stolen”.

Need to know more about this. The election was cancelled? Who are the parties and what are their policies?
More later hopefully.
UPDATE: Reading the Sky News piece, anyone who has been paying attention can see this is the same Trump Russia Collusion line of action used against President Trump in 2016. Nearly identical, except in Romania they cancelled the election in ADVANCE instead of trying to undo it afterwards.
[…]
Romania‘s constitutional court released an unprecedented verdict on Friday afternoon that the entire election would be cancelled after naming Russia as the nation behind a hybrid attack designed to magnify Mr Georgescu’s social media campaign.
The court has also claimed that Mr Georgescu, who is not aligned to any political party, broke campaign finance rules after saying that he had spent nothing. I put both of these allegations to him directly, and he denied them both.
Firstly, on Russia, he said: “It doesn’t exist – there aren’t any – any – links between me and Russia. I’ve only got a relationship with Romanian people.
“They cannot accept the victory of the Romanian people. Here elections have been manipulated for 35 years. The power has been stolen.”
UPDATE 2: From a comment under this post that certainly seems totally reasonable and consistent with many other variables since 2008
Comment:
I’ve posted about this issue last week (friday-saturday) on jihadwatch.Basicly insofar most of the people see it this way: the US sent a threatening/warning message that they are not really happy with Calin Georgescu winning the first round of the presidential election.
Because some of his policies:
– closing off the wheat corridor. As in they will not allow Ukrainean wheat into the country. Regarding Ukrainean wheat there is already a huge uproar in most of the neighbouring/region countries, because the Ukrainean wheat does not comply with EU standards and regulations. Therefore it is a lot cheaper than the locally produced wheat. Also other agriculture products. (Ukrainean agricultural products can be produced using banned chemicals in the EU.) This is not really just a romanian issue as i mention, most of the neighbouring countries are also unhappy about it, as their farmers are hit hard with the greatly reduced prices.
– the other one is that he plans to stop all military(and possibly financial) support given by Romania to the Ukraine.Some folks see it this way, the US whistled and the Romanian Supreme Court danced to it and annulled an election a week after the election.
So it actually greatly hurt the trust placed in the democractic institutions, the goverment instutions and agencies. And also did not do good for US-Romanian relations.
It also undermined the trust with the EU and its institutions as well.I am from the extended region.
when i wrote the above, i was called a russian troll though, there are still a lot of speculations going on as information is a bit hard to come by. However so far what everyone agrees on is that all this happened after they received the message from the US, where they are voicing their concern about the election results.

Romania halts most Covid-19 vaccine imports as people shun jabs
Romania has halted the import of most Covid-19 vaccines after a slowdown in its inoculation drive prompted the government to sell more than a million doses to Denmark and seek an extension to the validity of tens of thousands of expired shots.
Many states in central and eastern Europe have similar concerns over falling inoculation rates, which could leave large sections of the population vulnerable to the highly contagious Delta variant of Covid-19 and future strains of the virus.
About 24 per cent of Romania’s 19 million residents have been fully inoculated, but the rollout has faltered in the provinces of the largely rural country due to poor infrastructure, wariness of the state and the spread of conspiracy theories through communities where health education is often poor.
(Or that they just don’t want the shot. Funny how fast they go to the rube excuse)
Thank you MissPiggy

Germany: Rejected Asylum Seeker Kills Prostitute
An original translation of German newspaper Bild.
Rejected Asylum Seeker Strangles Prostitute
Why was the murderer of Lica (33) not deported?
Prostitute Lica L. (†33) was strangled to death in her apartment in Regensburg. She had been living in Germany for four years.
By J. Völkerling, September 06, 2017
Regensburg – It is difficult to take. Another asylum seeker, who should long have been deported, killed a woman in Germany!
Only Wednesday, Bild reported about the murder trial of Hussein K. (according to expert assessment, older than 22), who had raped and murdered student Maria L. (†19). K. should never have received asylum procedures in Germany: he had already applied for asylum in Greece, and had spent time in jail for attempted murder.
Now, the next case surfaces
In the night of August 29./30., Souleymane T. (21) from Mali sees prostitute Lica L. (†33) in Regensburg. They have sex, he pays 50 Euro. Then the man presses a pillow on the Romanian woman’s mouth, strangles her to death, flees with his victim’s money and phone.
Monday, police is able to arrest the African in Weiden in Upper Palatinate, after they were able to geolocate the phone. He is in detention for murder since.
His motive? Greed! „He killed the woman for financial reasons“, announces Franz Schimpel of the criminal investigation department Regensburg.
The man from Mali should not even have been here anymore in the first place – two montsh ago, his asylum application had been rejected!
The proceedings: Souleymane T. entered Germany on March 30, asked for asylum one day later in Heidelberg, and was transferred to Regensburg, where he filed his application officially. His accommodation is opposite the apartment of his later victim. In May, T. committed battery in the accommodation.
A housemate tells Bild: „He came from the town of Bamako. I went to the welfare agency with him, I had to pay for the taxi, as he refused. I did not want to share a room with him anymore.“
Already on June 20 – only three months after entry – his application for asylum is rejected. The authorities were quick! But T. is not deported: „As the man was not possessing a valid passport, the aliens registration authority requested substitute papers from the Republic of Mali.“
The photo of his birth certificate which he produced on entry was not sufficient for the authorities.
„It is not clear if this was the photo of a genuine document“, a speaker of the government Upper Palatinate says to Bild. As several authorities are involved in the acquisition of a substitute passport, one had no influence „on the timeline of the consulr proceedings“.
Why was T. not in custody pending deportation? A police speaker says to Bild: „A substitute document was requested from the Republic of Mali, and for the time being, a suspension of deportation is extended, time and again. The battery offense in May was no sufficient reason for custody.“
Translator’s Note:
This case is particularly sad, as a Romanian woman is the victim. Since an alliance of Social Democrats, Greens, Liberals, and Die Linke completely legalized prostitution in 2002, Germany has become the center of human trafficking of women from impoverished families in Eastern and Southeastern Europe. These women barely make a living, and send the little money they can save home to their families, many of them were even forced into prostitution.
