The attack by local PSD councilor Aurelian Bădulescu against President Klaus Iohannis is nationalistic and retrograde. The president of the Federation of Jewish Communities of Romania, Aurel Vainer, tells RFI.

The backlash comes after the former deputy mayor general of the Capital posted on Facebook a false image of the head of state with Hitler’s mustache, Mediafax reports.
Aurelian Bădulescu wrote that “Iohannisism is that doctrine of destruction of national identity, which lays the foundations for the transfer of national sovereignty.”
The Social Democrat also wrote that President Iohannis makes all of Romania’s human and natural resources available to the Merkel-Macron couple.
Aurelian Bădulescu came back and deleted the fake image from his account, but not the text.
Aurel Vainer believes that such language slippages have no place in a democracy: “We know that during World War II, the Jews suffered because of the Germans, but that does not mean that we judge them globally, clever. Anyone of German descent is a fascist, a Nazi. That is not the case. “
He believes that some layers of society can be influenced by such rhetoric: “Obviously there are influences, if there are certain layers, population categories, segments, that are receptive to all these ugly, nationalistic and ultimately backward messages. There are no permissible demonstrations in a democracy. “
