Trump Pressures Romania Over Tate Brothers

“The Trump administration has pressured Romanian authorities to lift travel restrictions on the self-described misogynist influencer Andrew Tate, a champion of the U.S. president who is facing criminal charges in Bucharest,” the Financial Times reports.

“Andrew and his brother Tristan Tate, who are dual US and UK nationals, have become a cause célèbre in rightwing social media after having been arrested in Romania in 2022 and charged with human trafficking, sexual misconduct and money laundering, as well as starting an organized crime group.”
