AI Summary:
Romania’s central election authority has banned far-right pro-Russian candidate Calin Georgescu from running in the country’s May presidential election re-run. The decision, announced on Sunday, is not yet legally binding, and is expected to be appealed. Georgescu unexpectedly won the first round of the country's presidential election on November 24. Tens of thousands of people have protested against the decision. Members of US President Donald Trump’s administration called Romania’s cancelled election an example of European governments suppressing freedom of speech and political opponents. Tech billionaire Elon Musk called the election authority’s decision “crazy” on his social media platform X. Georgescu is under criminal investigation on six counts.
