NATO Cheers, Kremlin Fumes | Romania Elects Pro-West Leader Nicusor Dan

Nicuşor Dan won Romania’s presidency with 54% of the vote, defeating ultranationalist rival George Simion in a runoff that followed the annulment of last year’s results over foreign interference concerns. Simion initially refused to concede, denouncing the rerun as a “coup,” but later congratulated Dan while vowing political resistance Dan’s win was celebrated by EU leaders as a win for pro-European democracy, with leaders including Macron, Von der Leyen, and Zelensky welcoming his election, calling it a signal of Romania’s firm commitment to NATO, the EU, and democratic values in a region vulnerable to Russian influence. #RomaniaElection #NicuşorDan #GeorgeSimion #ProEU #EasternEurope #RomaniaVotes #RomaniaPresidency #RunoffElection #ElectionVictory #BucharestMayor #Romania2025 #NATOAlly #EuropeanUnity #DanWins #SimionConcedes #RomaniaPolitics #Zelensky #VonDerLeyen #Macron #ElectionAnnulment #RussianInterference #DemocracyWins #RomanianPolitics #EUFuture #PoliticalChange #CorruptionCrackdown #RomaniaNews #BreakingNews #EuropeVotes #StrongEurope Also Read NATO Members Report Airspace Violations by Russian Drones :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/russian-drones-violate-nato-airspace-011-3929165.html?ref=DMDesc Andrew Tate's House Raided In Romania Over Rape Charges :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/andrew-tate-house-raided-in-romania-over-rape-charges-011-3913185.html?ref=DMDesc Drone Explosion Near Romania-Ukraine Border Raises Concerns :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/drone-explosion-near-romania-ukraine-border-raises-concerns-gen-3658063.html?ref=DMDesc

Zelensky, Macron, Starmer Call Trump After Istanbul Talks Collapse; West Rattled by Putin’s Demands?

Zelensky, alongside French President Emmanuel Macron and UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer, held a high-level phone call with Donald Trump on May 16. The emergency dialogue came as Russia refused a ceasefire and demanded full Ukrainian withdrawal from key regions it doesn't entirely control — Donetsk, Luhansk, Zaporizhzhia, and Kherson. While Ukraine, led by Defense Minister Rustem Umerov, pushed for genuine negotiations, Putin declined direct talks and sent aide Vladimir Medinsky instead. The only breakthrough: a 1,000-for-1,000 prisoner of war swap. #ZelenskyVsPutin #IstanbulTalks #PutinAfraid #UkraineWar #PeaceTalksFail #ZelenskyStatement #RussiaUkraineCrisis #PutinNoShow #EUUnited #TrumpCall #CeasefireNow #UkraineStandsStrong #ShamDelegation #PressureOnRussia #DiplomacyDeadlock Also Read Putin Declares 'Easter Truce' In Russia-Ukraine War Amid US Proposal, Ceasefire To Stay Till Sunday Midnight :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/putin-declares-easter-truce-in-russia-ukraine-war-amid-us-proposal-to-stay-untill-sunday-midnight-4128473.html?ref=DMDesc US Will Drop Ukraine-Russia Peace Efforts If No Progress Within Days: Marco Rubio :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-will-drop-ukraine-russia-peace-efforts-if-no-progress-within-days-marco-rubio-4127371.html?ref=DMDesc Russian Drone Strike Hits Indian Pharma Warehouse In Kyiv, Ukraine Accuses Moscow Of ‘Deliberate Targeting’ :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/russian-drone-strike-hits-indian-pharma-warehouse-in-kyiv-ukraine-accuses-moscow-of-deliberate-tar-4122569.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~PR.152~ED.420~GR.124~

‘France leading West’s PARTY OF WAR’ | Kremlin hits back at Macron’s call for more sanctions

Russia has slammed French President Emmanuel Macron, accusing him of leading a “party of war” in NATO and the EU after he backed tougher sanctions on Moscow over the Ukraine conflict.
