AUR MP Ionelia Priescu has accused PNL MEP Virgil Popescu of politicizing the recent downing of drones by the Romanian Army. Priescu alleges Popescu is using the incidents to launch a new political attack against AUR leader George Simion and his party. This response follows Popescu’s Facebook post, where he accused Simion of being subservient to Russia and President Vladimir Putin. The AUR is dismissing these claims as politically motivated. Priescu challenged Popescu to answer a “simple question,” implying he is avoiding substantive debate. This exchange highlights growing tensions between the two political factions within Romania. The situation escalates as scrutiny grows over recent airspace breaches and potential external influence.
