Călin Georgescu's first-round victory in Romania's presidential election was annulled due to a massive, Russia-backed social media campaign that illegally boosted his profile. Influencers, some unaware of their involvement, were used to promote him, while investigations revealed significant financial backing for the campaign. Romanian authorities are now probing the funding sources, including a coder linked to over €1 million in donations and $7 million in cryptocurrency assets.
Russian President Vladimir Putin met with North Korean Foreign Minister Choe Son-hui in Moscow, raising concerns in the West about a potential military alliance between the two nations. Meanwhile, the U.S. presidential election is set for November 5, featuring Vice President Kamala Harris as the Democratic candidate. In Gaza, Israeli air strikes have resulted in at least 12 Palestinian deaths, while Moldova's pro-European President Maia Sandu celebrates her re-election amid a divided political landscape.
Moldova's efforts to recover embezzled funds from former politicians face challenges, particularly with Switzerland's slow legal processes. Despite significant diplomatic support and a recent confiscation of a luxury villa belonging to oligarch Vladimir Plahotniuc, the return of assets remains uncertain. As Moldova approaches a pivotal EU referendum, the effectiveness of Swiss-Moldovan cooperation is under scrutiny.
Moldova faces unprecedented disinformation campaigns ahead of a pivotal referendum on EU membership, with Russia allegedly spending €50 million on election interference. Social media platforms are being exploited to amplify anti-EU and pro-Kremlin narratives, while bots and fake accounts proliferate misinformation. Authorities warn that this situation highlights global vulnerabilities to similar tactics, as pro-Kremlin forces encourage voter apathy to undermine the referendum's validity.
