Romanian AUR leader Simion left with 12.5M lei debt after presidential campaign

An investigation by Snoop reveals George Simion, leader of the Romanian nationalist party AUR, accumulated debts of 12.5 million lei (approx. $2.5M) during his 2025 presidential campaign, owing money to businessmen linked to Maricel Păcuraru, owner of Realitatea PLUS. The claim is based on a single investigative report and has not been independently corroborated. This matters as it could affect Simion's political standing and raise questions about campaign financing transparency in Romania.
