Elections in Romania: breakthrough of the far right among the population worried about its future

In Romania, the electoral campaign is well underway. The European and municipal elections in June are approaching. And in this country which has just partially joined the Schengen area, the far right is on the rise, as in many European neighbors. The AUR party, created in 2019, obtained 9% of the vote in the last legislative elections. He could come out on top in the Europeans. The Alliance for the Union of Romanians is banking on the frustration and resentment of part of the population against a backdrop of economic anxiety, identity crisis and disinformation.
