Romanian mep threatens zelensky in explosive moscow speech
Romanian MEP Diana Șoșoacă caused outrage this week after threatening Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky during a visit to Moscow. “If he dares to speak in the Romanian parliament, I’ll break his legs,” she said, speaking to members of the “Friends of Russia” group, according to WP Wiadomości.
The aggressive remark has sparked condemnation in both domestic and international media.
Political theatre or serious threat?
Șoșoacă’s comments were made during an official meeting with Russian sympathizers, where she framed Zelensky not just as a foreign leader, but as “an enemy of the Romanian nation.”
She warned that any address from the Ukrainian president in Romania’s parliament would be met with physical retaliation — a threat that now overshadows Romania’s diplomatic standing.
Grievances over the Romanian minority in ukraine
In her speech, Șoșoacă accused Ukraine of mistreating its Romanian minority, claiming that over one million ethnic Romanians live in the country.
According to WP Wiadomości, she alleged that these communities are denied the right to speak their native language or freely practice their faith — rhetoric that reflects long-standing tensions but was delivered in a highly inflammatory manner.
Calls Zelensky a danger to romania
Positioning herself as a nationalist defender, Șoșoacă declared her mission to protect Romanian sovereignty and framed Zelensky’s leadership as a threat.
Describing Ukraine as a “regime,” she presented her views as a patriotic stance — though her words have been widely condemned as extremist and deeply unconstructive.
Who is Diana Șoșoacă?
Diana Șoșoacă is known for her controversial speeches and actions. According to WP Wiadomości, she introduced herself during the Moscow meeting as a lawyer who has been fighting for citizens’ rights for thirty years.
Ongoing legal troubles
WP Wiadomości reports that the Romanian prosecutor’s office is pursuing several cases against Șoșoacă, including charges related to Holocaust denial and promoting war criminals.
Although summoned for questioning, she has reportedly failed to appear, citing stays abroad. Prosecutors have requested the European Parliament lift her immunity so the investigations can continue.
Appearance in Moscow
According to WP Wiadomości, Diana Șoșoacă gave her speech in Moscow at the invitation of the international association Friends of Russia.
Her participation in the event has sparked debate in Romania, with critics viewing it as politically charged and aligned with narratives that echo Kremlin interests.
Backlash over inflammatory remarks
As reported by WP Wiadomości, Șoșoacă’s threat toward Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has attracted significant media attention.
Her remarks have been widely condemned as scandalous and are being cited as the latest example in a pattern of inflammatory rhetoric that raises concerns about her role in representing Romania on the international stage.
