PM Ciolacu:Russia cannot tell Romanian authorities who to investigate and who not to investigate

 Russia cannot tell Romanian authorities who to investigate and who not to investigate, Russia cannot dictate who Romanians should elect and cannot be a model of good democratic practices, Prime Minister Marcel Ciolacu said on Tuesday in a post on his Facebook account."The fact that a Russian secret service positions itself against decisions of the Romanian authorities is intolerable! Russia cannot tell the Romanian authorities who to investigate and who not to investigate. Russia cannot dictate who Romanians should elect and who not to elect. Russia cannot be a model of good democratic practices. Russia is a country where political opponents are tortured, thrown into prison or killed. In short: in Russia, human rights and democracy are a bad joke! Beyond political rhetoric, Romanians have the opportunity to understand directly who the forces are that are trying to undermine Romania's European and Euro-Atlantic path," Marcel Ciolacu said.The Russian Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR) claimed on Tuesday, in a press release, also taken over by TASS news agency, that the leaders of the European Union are clearly behind the decision to bring charges against the candidate for the Romanian Presidency, Calin Georgescu.According to the cited source, Brussels is waging a war against the European leaders who openly support the U.S. President, Donald Trump.According to the SVR, "Brussels is extremely worried that the new American leader could weaken the European globalist superstructure and is relying on conservative leaders with a national orientation, such as Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban, Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico and the candidate for the Romanian Presidency, Calin Georgescu"."European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, who played a key-role in invalidating the results of the first round of the Romanian presidential election, has called on the current authorities in Bucharest to ban Georgescu from participating in the new elections in May. She warned that if this representative of 'non-systemic forces' continues his electoral campaign, the European Union will restrict Romania's access to its funds," the Russian Foreign Intelligence Service claims, without providing evidence."After an attack on Georgescu, it is very likely that the European liberal mainstream will make new attempts to suppress dissent in the EU. Their main target will be Hungary, as the 'bastion of European conservatism,' and a good pretext will be the upcoming parliamentary elections in this country next year," the SVR concluded.
