Diana Șoșoacă intervened live on the state television channel Russia Today and made a series of extremely serious statements.
Dressed in mourning, she began her video intervention by stating that in Romania „democracy is dead” and continued with accusations against Ukraine about shocking threats.
The MEP denounced the European Union and promised actions in Brussels against European leaders.
Diana Șoșoacă, shocking speech on Russian television
Diana Șoșoacă intervened live on Russia Today, wearing mourning clothes in protest against what she calls "the death of Romanian democracy." She launched a vehement attack on the Romanian state and the European Union.
"First of all, I want to tell you that I am in mourning because in Romania we do not have democracy, democracy is dead. So now I mourn... and wait for the Constitutional Court to tell me that I am banned again, because they are not prepared for me, because I am pro-Putin, because I love Russia, because I visited the Russian Embassy, because I wrote to Putin, to Trump, because I wrote to the whole world that Romania does not have democracy," Şoşoacă declared.
Şoşoacă continued her speech accusing the European Union of a lack of democracy and promised to go to Brussels to demand the resignation of Ursula von der Leyen and Roberta Metsola, whom she accuses of seeking her ban.
Serious threats and accusations against Ukraine
Şoşoacă also made extremely serious statements regarding Ukraine, claiming she received shocking threats from individuals of Ukrainian origin.
"This morning I received numerous calls from Ukrainian individuals who told me that Romanian women will be killed, they will cut off our heads, rape us in groups, and dismember us.
This is the gratitude we receive for all the help. And they also told me that they will kill us like in 1945, so it wasn't Russia, it was the Ukrainians," the MEP claimed.
The show's host tried to redirect the discussion to the topic of her candidacy in the presidential elections, but Şoşoacă continued in the same vein, repeating accusations against Ukraine and the EU.
The Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) announced on Monday that Diana Şoşoacă, the leader of the far-right extremist party S.O.S. Romania, is banned from entering Ukraine for three years due to her anti-Ukrainian and pro-Russian statements. The decision comes after Şoşoacă sent a letter to Russian President Vladimir Putin, complaining that her presidential candidacy was rejected.
