As Romania prepares for the second round of its re-run presidential election, Bucharest Mayor and independent candidate Nicușor Dan is mounting a bold challenge to beat his nationalist opponent George Simion, who won the election's first round last Sunday.
In a joint interview with Euronews and Euronews Romania, Dan, who came in second after leapfrogging the ruling big tent candidate Crin Antonescu in a dramatic finish to Sunday's vote count, maintained his strongly pro-European positions, including with Ukraine, one of his key differences from his self-proclaimed "Euro-realist" rival.
