George Simion incurred over 69 million lei in expenses during his 2025 presidential campaign, leaving him with personal debts of 12.5 million lei. Most funds came from loans, which he expected to repay using state reimbursements. However, the Permanent Electoral Authority found irregularities in his campaign expenses and has withheld 17 million lei. A significant payment of 450,000 euros was made for a TV show where Simion was absent, raising concerns about compliance with political advertising laws. This debt marks the highest remaining for a presidential candidate in Romania in 36 years.
