AUR Party Event in Sweden Sparks Controversy After Man is Ejected for Criticizing George Simion's Gesture AUR supporters in Sweden threw a party for the Romanian right‑wing movement when George Simion cut a cake shaped like Greenland that was decorated with the US flag. The act was meant to showcase Romanian identity in Scandinavia. Gabriel Ursescu, a former member of the unionist movement Naţiunea 2012, interrupted the event to protest the use of national symbols for political marketing and called for the depoliticisation of the Romanian diaspora organisation. He was forcibly removed from the venue amid boos and shouting from AUR supporters, who demanded that he leave the event. Ursescu urged that symbols such as the flag should not be used by any political party and accused the “Înapoi acasă” project of data collection. The incident has drawn attention to the growing influence of Romanian politics abroad.
