Four American senators, republicans and democrats, condemn Russia's interference in Romanian presidential elections and express their support for this country in the fight for the integrity of the election process. Vladimir Putin's attack on Romanian elections is another example of the hybrid war against European allies and partners, declared senators Pete Ricketts, Ben Cardin, Jim Risch and Jeanne Shaheen, in a public statement released on the US Senate website. They showed they backed Romania, a strong NATO ally in the fight for the integrity of its elections. They condemned Putin's manipulation on TikTok, controlled by the Chineses People's Party, to undermine the democratic process in Romania.

In their turn, Democratic senator Jeanne Shaheen is chairperson of the Senate Subcommission for foreign relations with Europe and cooperation in the field of regional security, which her Republican colleague Pete Ricketts is a member of that subcommission.
