EU Shows Its True Colours with Thierry Breton: ‘We can suspend elections as we did in Romania’

‘The more this happens, the more Europeans will realize that they do not live in truly free countries, and that what they have been sold is a falsehood. Those responsible for the economic stagnation in Europe, the insecurity, the loss of identity, the demographic decline, and the extreme polarization of societies have a name and a surname: the European Establishment.’

The totalitarian drift of the European Union has become more notorious over the years. It has been seen, as the supranational entity has been acquiring more competences, has been putting more regulations, more taxes, more guidelines, more policies and being one of the main reasons why Europe does not manage to revert its economic competitiveness.

Member States used to have a sovereignty with which they could decide what decision to make. However, over the years, that sovereignty has been reduced in order to be loyal to the objectives set by the European Union, or rather, to those of Agenda 2030 with its elite and philanthropists behind it.

Brussels bureaucrats have always denied such accusations, as they always claim that they are transparent and that they do not persecute any country for possible ideological or economic decisions they make; that they are simply trying to uphold the rule of law in member states and ensure compliance with the treaties.

Nevertheless, in recent years, this has changed, and European bureaucrats are becoming more and more nervous. The clearest example? A few days ago, former European commissioner Thierry Breton assured that the European Union has mechanisms to overturn an eventual AfD victory: ‘We did it in Romania and obviously we will do it in Germany if necessary.’

This means that they are no longer hiding their intentions and have taken off their masks completely. They tell you to your face that they can suspend elections and that absolutely nothing happens, then they have the cheek to declare themselves the ‘democrats’ and ‘tolerant’, when it is them who are the main enemies of democracy and freedom of expression!

Romania: A Coup d’État that the Mainstream Media Have Tried to Cover Up

Surprising everyone, Călin Georgescu, the independent candidate, won the first round of the Romanian presidential election with 22.9 per cent, followed by Elena Lasconi (19.17 per cent) and Ciolacu, who came third with 19.15 per cent. The decisive vote of the Diaspora, in which Romanians living abroad were able to vote for three days, favoured Georgescu, who obtained 43.35 per cent of those votes. The big loser was Ciolacu, with only 2.87 per cent. This unexpected victory of Georgescu and the absence of establishment candidates in the second round marked a milestone in Romania’s political history.

On the Friday before the elections and without prior notice, the Constitutional Court decided to hold an emergency meeting in the middle of the day. After the meeting, the Constitutional Court decided to suspend the elections on the same day, despite the fact that people were already voting in the diaspora. According to the Constitutional Court, the presidential elections had been suspended because of alleged irregular financing and alleged foreign interference. In a statement from Romanian intelligence, the secret services alleged that a TikTok user paid more than 361,000 euros to other users to promote Georgescu content. The intelligence authorities claimed that the information they obtained ‘revealed an aggressive promotional campaign’ to increase and accelerate his popularity.

However, this information has never been proven. In fact, according to a Snoop (investigative journalist organization) investigation, Georgescu’s alleged financing would have been done by the PNL. All this, so that Georgescu’s message would spread and more people could vote for him so that George Simion would not make it to the second round. In fact, the ANAF (National Agency for Tax Administration) discovered that the PNL paid for a campaign massively promoting Călin Georgescu on TikTok, published on 20 December 2024.

The polls were clear: Georgescu was winning by a landslide in all of them, and according to the polls, it was practically impossible for Lasconi to stand up to him. Why? First of all, the PSD had not defined which candidate it supported, leaving its voters free to choose who to support, while Georgescu did have the support of the conservative and nationalist candidates. Secondly, the diaspora was practically won by Georgescu, who won more than 43 per cent of the votes in that category, in addition to the 13 per cent that Simion won in the first round. Thirdly, Romanian society is still more conservative than Western European ones; in fact, the PSD is not progressive, unlike the Spanish PSOE, so Lasconi’s progressive approach subtracted many points from it. And finally, Georgescu used the ‘anti-party’ discourse, which works well in many countries, especially in Romania, where in the 2020 parliamentary elections only 31.95 per cent of the population voted.

In fact, Georgescu was leading with as much as 77 per cent against Lasconi’s 23 per cent in the diaspora when Romania’s Constitutional Court decided to annul the elections.

Mass Protests in Bucharest Against Globalist Interference

According to official sources, between 100 and 150 thousand people decided to demonstrate last Sunday, 12 January, in Bucharest to denounce what happened in the country. Tens of thousands of people took to the streets from 2:00 p.m. (local time in Romania) until almost 9:00 p.m. (local time in Romania), i.e. they were demonstrating in temperatures as low as -1 degree Celsius.

The demonstration was led and supported by George Simion, leader of AUR, the second party in the Romanian Parliament. Simion and many Romanian sovereigntists walked a total of 19 km. Likewise, Georgescu, the independent candidate who advanced to the second round, also seconded the demonstration, although he did not attend it.

The main aim of the demonstration was to denounce the coup d’état by the establishment, to protest at the globalist interference in domestic politics, and to denounce Klaus Iohannis as an illegitimate president, considered to be usurping the presidency of the country. Actually, in the front of Cotroceni Palace, the presidential residence, protesters demanded Iohannis’ resignation, calling him a traitor and a usurper—for what he is.

The demonstration was a success, despite the poor coverage in the national and international mainstream media, thanks to social networks that were flooded with posts on patriotic Romanians demonstrating en masse at what was a full-fledged coup d’état.

Conclusion: If This Has Happened in Romania, It Can Happen Anywhere in the EU

It is not the first time that the European Union establishment snubs a country for making a decision they do not like or follow an agenda contrary to what the EU elite wants. Hungary, a country led by Prime Minister Viktor Orbán, has been repeatedly punished by European bureaucrats. European funds have been suspended supposedly because of the state of the rule of law in the country, but the same establishment has nothing to say about the state of the rule of law in other countries, as in the case of Spain, where there are plenty of examples of how Pedro Sanchez has repeatedly bypassed the Spanish constitution and half of the Spanish Prime Minister’s cabinet and family has been accused of corruption. If Orbán’s wife and brother were being investigated, it would be a worldwide scandal and the story would be leading news in all the mainstream media in the West, but since Sánchez is a loyal follower of Agenda 2030 and has a close relationship with Von der Leyen, the mainstream media remains silent.

The same case was suffered by Poland when the country was led by PiS (Law and Justice). When they were voted out of power and Tusk took over in 2023, by ‘magic’, despite the fact that the Polish executive had not changed a single law in judicial matters or the rule of law, the new government was granted the frozen funds immediately.

Nor has it been the first threat to a European country if its citizens dared to ‘vote the wrong way’. Let’s remember that in the Italian elections of 2022, when all polls indicated that Giorgia Meloni would be the next Prime Minister of Italy, von der Leyen declared that if Meloni did not align herself with Brussels, she would be penalized like Hungary and Poland.

The more this happens, the more Europeans will realize that they do not live in truly free countries, and that what they have been sold is a falsehood. Those responsible for the economic stagnation in Europe, the insecurity, the loss of identity, the demographic decline, and the extreme polarization of societies have a name and a surname: the European Establishment.
