    Remember everyone!
    Political Parties are just a joke.
    Don't vote.
    AUR is sus

    AUR is the extremist wing of PSD( the socialist party). PSD had other unsuccessfully attempts to do this, creating parties as Pro Romania, UNPR, Romania-Mare. PSD also infiltrated its undercover molls in the Liberal Party to overtake it and succeeded. They did the same with other old traditional Party, PNT, destoing it complete. The best example of todays infiltration is Rares Bogdan, one of the mastermind destroyers of the PNL(the democratic wing of Liberal party, who defeat the Socialist PSD in the previous elections) , who was created in the pro-rusian "political analyst" Cosmin Guse (former PSD political advisor) main laboratory. Cosmin Guse is owning pro rusian tv station(also an overtaked previous democrativ tv station) where the "liberal" Rares Bogdan was fabricated as the Liberal Messia , but at the end he proved himself as being the Nemesis of the Liberal Democratic party. Now we have a Socialist Party united with an overtaked Liberal Party and a PSD extremist version party-AUR. Actually now PSD is covering all the political spectrum and is seeding the seeds of dictatorship. They hate even their former lider Mircea Geoana who is now the Deputy Secretary General of NATO.

    (Romanian here) You should try putting the names of politicians through some text to speech program to learn that country's correct pronunciation before recording the video (Google Translate is also decent). When you pronounced Mircea Geoană as "Myrsia Jowannah" I had no idea of who you were talking about until I looked at the picture of him.

    AUR and Sosoaca are the Russian backed and funded fifth column in this country which is why they have such a meteoric rise in popularity that is clearly inorganic and unjustifiable. The purpose is to sow unrest and division in society, to have people at each other's throats – think 2016 US elections or Jan 6th. What the fuck have AUR and Sosoaca ever done for Romania? Romanians have no love for Russia, they have only brought death, misery and poverty upon our people. In less than a 250 years window (basically since the US exists as a nation) the Russians have invaded our lands and commited atrocities more than a dozen times.

    Romanian Nation doesn`t need Politics. Romanians need reform in principals State Institutions because those institutions are drive it by the corrupts and traitors. The Political class of Romania is made it from groups of criminal organizations name it Political Parties. No.1. Reform on the Justice because from there start the problems, the Justice doesn`t apply the penal law over those who sale the Country for bribe.

    AUR are basically babies who get thier microphone cut

  8. @GG-mk4sn

    February 21, 2024 at 9:20 pm

    This party AUR by George Simion is made up of Romania's trash just like Sosoaca. ROMANIANS DO NOT SUPPORT THESE NONVALUES.

  9. @FFKorMax

    February 21, 2024 at 9:20 pm

    AUR call themselves far right, yet shill for Putin who suppresses even slightest nationalist movements in Russia by jail and murder, actively extermiantes ethnic Russians, who are made the lowest cast in their own country (neo-soviet post-communist KGB dictatorial cattle stall with a prison code instead of constitution, where I spent most of my life) AGAINST Ukraine, where Russian far-right nationalist volunteers have gathered to fight against Putin's neo-bolshevik regime, where Azov is BASED and held in the highest regard as heroes and protectors of Ukranian nation and sovereignty…
    AUR needs to either put on clown noses before each statement or go volunteer to fight for Transnistria – make yourself funny or true to your ideals, at least…

  10. @davidkent6633

    February 21, 2024 at 9:20 pm

    No offence but you're talking out of your anal sphincter! Romanians will NEVER join Russia with anything, we despise their war-mongering culture. As a proud Romanian national I can GUARANTEE that unless we're FORCED into an "alliance" with Russia *IT AIN'T HAPPENING y'all* GO HOME MATE! If i were you I'd just study up before farting out of my mouth

    Allow me to make it as simple as possible … The European Union dream full of values and rights is fading away since 2019 .
    For eastern Europe who didn't have the luxury of democracy until early 80's … countries know what it means to be controlled and appressed .
    Eastern Europe didn't trade communism for another version of communism in the WOKE west.
    We see the western world today and it's actually regressing more than evolving.
    Just go and look outside in your own city !!!

    The europe we fought and sacrificed to join is fading away with every passing day under the current WOKE dominion.

    Someone once told me the most real thing i have ever heard : " Democracy is conditioned …. until there's no more democracy "
    2024 is the year Europe makes it or BRAKES

    February 21, 2024 at 9:20 pm

    Revisionists & nationalists are victimization experts. Mixed with populism, revisionism may attract the un-educated. It appears Romania has around 30% , which is less than in the USA. if the media can explain what is the difference between being a patriot and a nationalist, than there will be less extreme right revisionism and nationalism, which eventually lead to more conflict between states. Maintaining balance between nation and state interests within a changing international order is key. Personally, I do not trust Simion or Shoshoaca and also do not like them as people. Revengeful, super loud, and not very smart.

  19. @horvathlaszlo96

    February 21, 2024 at 9:20 pm

    A seemingly anti-system party gains momentum due to manipulation. This is not true nationalism. This is a fake and cheap veil of incompetence and uncivilization.

  20. @skynet13

    February 21, 2024 at 9:20 pm

    😂😂😂😂 what a idiot …. Inform yourself firs before do this shit. This party grew because of Austria and romanian people don’t have trust in Eu not AUR(trust in Eu drop in one year with 70%)…. And everyone trust in nato….

  21. @nightsurgeon23

    February 21, 2024 at 9:20 pm

    Romanian here,30 something of age, been telling my parents and grandparents that AUR will shock them in 2024, been generally regarded as overly pessimistic… won’t be here next year to tell them I was right in person, but will be calling them from france to sadly tell them I was right and remind them why I left Romania.

  22. @zoltanmezo479

    Not problem.Romanian betrayed all aliance on history,on the minut see the first enemy soldier…

    Most interesting thing that happened during entire this turmoil over ukraine, is when orban of hungary, after attack on north stream, said: hungary and serbia will every attack on energy infrastucture treat as declaration of war, we are not germany, we are serious countries 🙂

    AUR is the Rusia influence in Romania

  26. @NielssBohr

    Simion has no children yet. So he hasn't vaccinated them since they don't exist.

  27. @stefanmaxim4712

    February 21, 2024 at 9:20 pm

    Fake news. Romania will not be ally with Rusia.

  28. @dragosbogoi

    Did you say "Soviet-Democrats"? 😂

  29. @1683Jordan

    February 21, 2024 at 9:20 pm

    My God dude who prepares these materials for you? Are you guys drinking smoking too much? The mistakes you make are out of this world…

    Do you Never going to happen. Romanians traditionally genuinely dislike or even hate what Russians represent. Even if AUR would turn into a surprise like the Dutch PVV they would not be able to manoeuvre towards the east.

  30. @ArianeQube

    February 21, 2024 at 9:20 pm

    As a Romanian I am laughing my ass off watching this. First of all, Russia has been, is and forever will be HATED in Romania. To say that Romanians will become Putler's ally is to know nothing of the country's history. Second, AUR is mostly voted by illiterate people and communist nostalgics (which usually overlap), bu in no way are these any threatening majority of any kind. So yea. Clickbait title.
