[36] Romania accused Israel of interfering in the 2024 Romanian presidential election in favor of Georgescu.[37] On 2 December 2024, the Jewish News Syndicate characterized Georgescu as "—a little-known antisemitic, Holocaust-denying, pro-Russia candidate—projected to win a runoff election for prime minister amid allegations of Russian meddling".[38] Haaretz does not see Georgescu as a friend of the Jews.[39]

On 6 December, the Romanian Constitutional Court unanimously annulled the presidential election process due to additional "aggressive hybrid Russian attacks" favoring Georgescu.[40]

Georgescu has stated that he favors Romania's geopolitical non-alignment between the two power blocs.He denied being an extremist or a fascist, saying, "We remain directly linked to European values, but we must find our (own) values."[41] He spoke about supporting Romanian farmers, traditional values, the Romanian Orthodox Church, and Romania's energy and agricultural self-sufficiency.He said that Romania would respect its commitments to the EU and NATO, but only "to the extent that they will respect theirs" toward Romania.
