—👑🇷🇴 NEW: Presidential frontrunner George Simion signals political backing for monarchy restoration in Romania via constitutional reform.

Simion declared openness to reinstating the monarchy, stating "some people in Romania would like to return to the monarchy... I would agree with that," and emphasized it would occur only with parliamentary majority support. He confirmed AUR seeks a constitutional change to enable this.

A 2023 INSCOP survey found that 56.4% of Romanians believe the country's situation would have improved if the monarchy had been restored after 1989; however, only 35.4% would vote to reinstate it.

❔ Do you think more Romanians would now support restoring the monarchy? And if so — would you back someone like Georgescu founding a new dynasty as King Georgescu I?

🇮🇷❗️🤝🇺🇸 — 📰 NBC News | Top Iranian official says Tehran would forego highly enriched uranium in nuclear deal with Trump | The comments from a member of the supreme leader's inner circle appear to be the clearest public statements yet on Iran’s willingness to reach an agreement with the U.S. | May 14, 2025:

"Iran is ready to sign a nuclear deal with certain conditions with President Donald Trump in exchange for lifting economic sanctions, a top advisor to Iran’s supreme leader told NBC News on Wednesday.

Ali Shamkhani, a top political, military and nuclear advisor to Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, is one of the most senior Iranian officials to speak publicly about the ongoing discussions.

He said Iran would commit to never making nuclear weapons, getting rid of its stockpiles of highly-enriched Uranium which can be weaponized, agree to only enrich Uranium to the lower levels needed for civilian use, and allow international inspectors to supervise the process, in exchange for the immediate lifting of all economic sanctions on Iran.

Asked if Iran would agree to sign an agreement today if those conditions were met, Shamkhani said, “Yes.”

His comments appear to be the clearest public statement yet on Iran’s expectations and willingness to reach a deal from the supreme leader’s inner circle. Iran’s supreme leader has the final say on all matters of national security."
