Just two days before the vital Romanian presidential run-off between far-right candidate Călin Georgescu and centrist, pro-EU Elena Lasconi, the Romanian Constitutional Court has decided to cancel the first round, Euronews reports.
New elections will be held at a date designated by the government.
The dramatic decision comes after the declassification of the secret reports by the Romanian intelligence services showing the involvement of Russia in influencing voters through an anti-Western propaganda campaign supporting Georgescu.
The intelligence reports showed several illegal processes in Georgescu’s campaign financing.
