EU Leaders already planning to annul Germany's election, if needed. How long before they try that stuff here?

“Let’s stay calm and enforce the laws in Europe, when they risk being circumvented and if not enforced, could lead to interference. They did it in Romania and, obviously, it will have to be done, if necessary, in Germany as well,” he concluded, referring to the cancellation of the first round of the presidential elections in December.

    EU leaders can't annul national elections in member states, never mind US elections.

    The first round of elections in Romania was indeed annulled.  And now they are saying they may have to do it again in Germany. 

    It maybe the locals doing it but they have blessing and perhaps the pressure of the EU to do it.

    The annulment in Romania had nothing to do with the EU leadership. The EU leadership has no say in the German electoral process, and therefore not 'planning to annul Germany's election, if needed'.

    The Romanian court annulled the election after finding interference from Russia. Your article is quoting a former EU official, not a current one, who says he believes that laws against interference are strong enough to protect against Musks interference. But, if Musk does not obey the law, then he suggested it may be necessary to annul the election as was done in Romania. I'm not sure what the objection is to having free and fair elections without outsiders trying to influence the outcome. Nor who, exactly,  might 'try that stuff here'.
