    The people who made their opinion based on tiktok will be pissed off.

    You know there are very specific rules about campaigning for an election.
    Allegedly Georgescu’s campaign disclosed zero expenses, yet it was obvious there was a campaign that advertised him with thousands accounts on ticktock.

    Obviously you shouldn’t be allowed to break campaign rules just because you are a foreign intelligence service sabotaging an election.
    Notice that things like the shitty Super-packs in USA are ALSO illegal in EU.
    In EU there is regulation where major interest parties need to be declared. And at least 1 such entity was operating illegally on behalf of Georgescu.

    So it seems to me, the legal side of the decision is pretty clear.
