Romania’s National Security Council has declassified documents detailing what it described as a co-ordinated campaign by Russia to the benefit of pro-Putin presidential frontrunner C?lin Georgescu.

“Romania is a target for aggressive Russian hybrid actions, including cyber attacks and information leaks and sabotage,” the council said on Wednesday, days before a run-off vote in which the far right candidate is leading, according to opinion polls.

According to one of the documents prepared by Romania’s secret services (SRI), “cyber crime platforms of Russian origin” had obtained login information for Romania’s election network in the run-up to the first round of presidential elections, which was topped by Georgescu — a previously fringe candidate.
