Multipolarity

Romanian Light, Rocket From The Crypt, Authoritarians For Democracy


Listen Later

No one imagined that Romanian elections would become a big spectator sport, but they’ve really proved us wrong. Remember the TikTok Secret Police Election? Well now Romania is back with a sequel: Ethno-Nationalist Hooligan for President.

The question smart observers are asking is: why can the powers that be live with one, not the other? The smartest are keeping the answer to themselves.

Meanwhile, if you’re passing through Ben Gurion International Airport, hang onto your drink. You wouldn’t want a slice of Houthi rocket in your arak.

But bad news for the duty free counter is even worse news for the next twenty years in the global air defence industry.

Finally, the AfD has been officially designated as 'right-wing extremist' by Germany’s spy agency. It’s eyes down for a full ban. Who knows, one day, Germany could even aspire to the democratic standards of Romania?
