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.

Exit polls from the Romanian presidential election suggest pro-Western centrist Nicusor Dan is on course for a surprise win over right-wing populist George.. Sky News
France has denied allegations of interfering in Romania’s presidential elections after Telegram founder Pavel Durov claimed a “Western European government” asked him to block Romanian conservatives ahead of the vote. Durov hinted at France with a baguette emoji and accused French intel chief Nicolas Lerner of personally approaching him. France called the accusations “unfounded” and blamed Moscow for interference in the earlier annulled round. The tight runoff between centrist Nicusor and Euroskeptic Simion is now mired in deeper controversy.

Vladimir Putin will not attend the high-stakes Russia-Ukraine talks in Istanbul. Instead, Kremlin aide and nationalist figure Vladimir Medinsky will lead the Russian delegation, reigniting debate over Russia's negotiation sincerity. Medinsky, known for his controversial historical views, previously led failed 2022 talks with Ukraine. Ukrainian President Zelensky insists only Putin’s presence signals real intent. He refuses to meet lower-tier officials. Meanwhile, Trump is also expected to skip the event. The absence of top leaders adds doubt over whether Istanbul's negotiations will yield any breakthrough in the ongoing war.

Keir Starmer’s government is facing strong criticism after agreeing to a deal that allows EU fishing vessels continued access to UK waters for 12 more years. Scottish fishermen and politicians have slammed the agreement as a betrayal, calling it a “horror show” that endangers local communities and the fishing industry. The Scottish Government and opposition parties accuse UK ministers of ignoring devolved consent and sacrificing fishermen’s interests for political gain. Critics warn the deal risks harming coastal economies and undermines post-Brexit sovereignty.
