The Romanian Constitutional Court has annulled the first round of the presidential election, citing Russian interference on TikTok and a coordinated disinformation campaign on Facebook. A report by CheckFirst reveals that over 3,600 misleading political ads targeted pro-European candidate Elena Lasconi while promoting far-right candidate Câlin Georgescu. These ads, allegedly illegal, violated Meta’s rules and reached up to 150 million users. Experts warn of the growing threat posed by unchecked disinformation to democratic institutions.
