NicuÈor Dan, the newly elected president of Romania, recently won the presidential election against his far-right rival George Simion with approximately 54% of the votes. Dan has previously expressed a nuanced position on LGBTQ+ rights, opposing definitions of marriage that exclude same-sex couples. His refusal to disclose how he voted in a 2018 referendum, which sought to ban same-sex marriage, reflects his complex stance. Moving forward, it remains to be seen how Dan's administration will approach LGBTQ+ issues in Romania.
In 2017, Dan expressed his stance against defining marriage strictly as between a man and a woman, stating that the main debate should focus on integrity rather than tradition.
Following the 2018 family referendum, NicuÈor Dan declined to clarify his vote despite being present, illustrating his complex position on LGBTQ+ rights.
