Background

Cristela Georgescu is the wife of Călin Georgescu, a far-right politician whose candidacy for the 2025 Romanian presidential election has been barred. Romanian electoral authorities rejected Călin Georgescu's bid to run in the May 2025 presidential election, and he has challenged this decision at Romania's top court. Călin Georgescu is also under investigation by prosecutors regarding alleged ties to Russia's Wagner Group.

There has been speculation that if Călin Georgescu's legal challenges fail to reinstate his candidacy, his wife Cristela might announce her own candidacy as an alternative strategy to maintain their political movement's presence in the election.
