George Simion, leader of AUR, faces debts exceeding 12 million lei after the 2025 presidential campaign, which cost over 69 million lei. Key lenders include family members of businessman Maricel Păcuraru and real estate developer Vasile Pușcaș. Simion claims he hasn't received full reimbursements from the Permanent Electoral Authority (AEP) due to issues with campaign material submissions. Nearly 100 individuals lent him money, with significant amounts from Păcuraru's family and others. Simion has repaid some loans but remains concerned about his financial situation and ongoing legal disputes with AEP regarding campaign financing.
