Romania far-right urges supermarket boycott over inflation
Far-right politicians in Romania urged a supermarket boycott to protest rising prices, following similar actions in Croatia and Bulgaria. Presidential hopeful Calin Georgescu called for solidarity with local producers, blaming inflation. Romania had the EU’s highest inflation last year, fueling far-right support. While the boycott’s impact remains unclear, critics see it as isolationist. Some argue multinational chains dominate pricing, while officials warn local producers could also suffer.
